The Final Push Raspberry Leaf Tea - Pack of 6

£30.00

The Final Push raspberry leaf tea can support you to prepare for labour from 32 weeks of pregnancy. Designed to help prepare your body for birth by strengthening your uterus. But the benefits build up over time, and the most cost effective way to be prepared is to buy this bulk pack.

You get 20% off, with 6 packs for the price of 5, and free delivery included.

This blend can not only help you prepare for labour, and aid digestion in the final weeks of pregnancy. It can also help recover from birth - so do pop some in your hospital bag.

Raspberry leaf has been shown in small scale studies to lead to shorter second stage labours and fewer interventions in birth - so whilst it isn't a drug, it's statistically worth a shot!

Whilst raspberry leaf can taste incredibly bitter, we've blended ours with whole peppermint to sweeten the blend and aid digestion. This is incredibly important in your 3rd trimester when you're full of baby!

Each pack contains 15 plastic free, whole leaf, plastic free, biodegradable tea pyramids.
They can be used to make 180 cups of tea or more.

Vegan and gluten free.

TEA TASTING NOTES

The whole peppermint in this blend, lifts it to be minty and refreshing. Not a hint of bitter raspberry leaf tea about it!

Thanks to the whole leaf used, this tea has a sweet, rich mouthfeel and is incredibly uplifting.

There's no need to add milk or sugar to this blend. If you like a really sweet cuppa, we recommend milk instead.

Claire C

I hated raspberry leaf tea in my first pregnancy. I had a blend that was bitter but flavoured with raspberry and it was awful. I was so happy when I tried this blend instead. The addition of mint is lovely and really helped me with heart burn, and I only pushed for 15 minutes!

I drank this before labour and also after - I had a C-section in the end due to complications, and the mint in the tea really helped reduce the pain of trapped gas after surgery, and I'm sure the raspberry leaf helped the post-birth pains too. I can't thank you for it enough.

This is the best raspberry leaf tea I tried. And I tried a lot! So refreshing, it wasn't a hardship to drink at all. I had a straightforward labour and the midwife said she couldn't believe how short my second stage of labour was, given it was my first baby. Thank goodness for The Final Push!

Frequently Asked Questions

The evidence for raspberry leaf tea...

You may red that raspberry leaf can bring on labour, and a lot of people do drink it when they are overdue to try to kick start things. But unforutnatley the evidence on this doesn't show it to be true. Only a very tiny minority of people will have this happen.

Instead, the research shows that if you drink i tfrom 32 weeks, you are more likely to have a shorter second stage labour and fewer interventions (forceps) in birth. It's not guaranteed but it's worth a shot!

The evidence comes from small scale studies - as there are no large scale studies on the use of raspberry leaf tea and labour.

The first study in Sydney, looked at 192 low risk mums between 1999 and 2000. It showed that women who drank the tea or took tablets of raspberry leaf, saw no adverse results, and only 19.3% of those who took it required forceps vs. 30.4% of mothers who didn't.

A second study, also in Sydney, looked at 108 women. 57 had raspberry leaf before labour vs. 51 who didn't. The 57 women who took it had no adverse effects, and were statistically less likely to have a c-section, forceps or vacuums use during birth.
