Evening Primrose

posted 23rd Jun
So, I asked my OB about the whole Red Raspberry Leaf pills and softening the cervix...he said that it works, however he recommends Evening Primrose instead. Anyone tried this???

watching** And how long does it take to work? I don't want to go in labor now, but wanted to know when would be a good time to start...

LOL, doc wont induce me unless I am starting to dilate, so he told me to do this...he said usually works "in a few days," but there is no science about how quickly it makes you dilate or anything, it just helps it along...

Any drug store sells Evening Primrose...I can't find the Red Raspberry Leaf pills anywhere though...

Just curious, you say a few days. Does it help start dilation "in a few days" or do you actually go into labor within a few days? I'd be interested in taking them, but obvisouly I don't wanna go into labor in a couple days, plus I'm not sure if I've started dilating or not on my own (doc hasn't checked yet.) Do you think it'd be safe to take even if you have started dilating?

It usually takes a few days for it to start working...doc says they are safe to take after 36 weeks (obviously that is my doc, so I would check with yours first). From everything I have read (just like everything else) you won't go into full labor unless your body/baby are ready...this just helps soften the cervix.
