How much raspberry leaf tea did you drink? Did it make your contractions stronger?

red raspberry leaf tea does not bring on contractions, it tones the uterus and is completely safe and suggested for use throughout pregnancy.

I drank 2-3 cups a day my entire pregnancy. Red raspberry leaf tea is a uterine tonic but it won't induce labor and it's unlikely it will make contractions any stronger.
I would drink a cup full but let me tell you...if your not ready you just have painful contractions that do no good

actually I was in the doctors office the other day and they had up a new bulletin stating all the stuff that you are NOT to use during pregnancy and i couldn't believe it they actually had respberry leaf tea up there. I forget why they said not to use it but they made it clear to not use it.

I am already having contractions, but it's just pronominal labor. So I wondered if it has helped anyone along when they were already having contractions..

I am dialated to 3 and 60 % effaced, I have had bloody show, lost mucus plug and lots of contractions but Nothing is really happening. I drank one cup last night but it didn't do anything.

I've never heard of it! The only tea I tend to drink (while pregnant) is Constant Comment and Peppermint Tea.
i didn't try this then. and i'm out now but having contractions that are regular just need to get them stronger, so i may venture out today and get some
