Question

I have quite a healthy diet anyway but any improvements i can make would be excellent.

Also can i start drinking raspberry leaf tea now in preparation?

Answer 1

ObGyns recommend that you begin taking a prenatal vitamin as soon as you begin trying to conceive to ensure proper nutrition and the health of your baby.

FertilAid for Women provides the ingredients of vitamins with a science-based herbal fertility enhancing supplement and includes proven fertility-enhancing herbal ingredients such as Vitex Agnus Castus, Ginger, PABA, Red Clover and Ginkgo Biloba to help restore hormonal balance and support overall reproductive wellness.

Answer 2

Rasperry leaf tea should not be taken prior to 30 weeks of pregnancy because of it's effect on the uterus, it may be dangerous to your pregnancy.

  I'd recommend a simple pre-natal combo vitamin. Sanatogen do a good one. As long as you have a good diet you probably won't need any extra except for folic acid.

Answer 3

i took sanatogen pro-natal

don't have the raspberry tea until labour time

Answer 4

You can take red raspberry leaf tea in moderation but its not reccomended until after 37 weeks as it could cause labour to incur. I suggest instead of taking too many vitamins and minerals to eat plenty of fresh fruit and veg instead. Its healthier and more natural. I suggest taking folic acid as its vital for babies development. Good luck hun :)

Answer 5

I thought raspberry leaf tea helped with labour.

Take folic acid....

Answer 6

folic acid and a good pre natal vitamin is really all you need.

good luck
