Thanks for the suggestion, Liz, I appreciate it... but yuck! I don't like those kinds of tea... they make me feel sick. I'm just weird like that - I don't like any teas, or milo! I usually drink straight hot water or juice concentrate made up with hot water, and the occasional cup of coffee.

No, bonjovi6, not long now... and today would be nice!
I guess I'm just impatient.
(by the way, it's a lowercase "L", not an "I", but just call me Becca!)

Hey funny you should suggest that lizzle - I just went and brought some raspberry leaf tea.. I'm usually a milo drinker. I never used it last time, so can anyone tell me how often you're supposed to have it? I know they don't recommend it till after 36 weeks because it can put some people into labour, I'm keeping it till then anyway - not gonna have any till i have at least finished assignments i need to do, just in case. lol.

lol, well - i figure if i'm not showing out the front, then this baby must be doing some damage somewhere, cos it's not really small considering me and mike's build.

I think the recommended dosage for Red Raspberry Leaf Tea is 2-3 cups per day in the last trimester, but if prone to early labour then wait till the the last 5 weeks. Also if you take 5W herbal supplements, it is supposed to do wicked things for one's uterus toning and other such good stuff to aid in delivery and recovery afterwards. Have heard rave reviews about it anyway....

yeah Arnica is fantastic. Take it while you are in labour too! Just a few drops under the tounge. Or put it in your labour water
