Red raspberry leaf tea or third trimester tea?

ColesMommy0606

I asked the midwife about this at my last appt and she said it won't do any harm but she had never researched the benefits so I thought I'd give it a try in a week or so. 

Does anyone have a preference over regular red raspberry leaf tea vs the third trimester tea that you can pickup at BRU? If so, why? I've heard that the red raspberry leaf tea taste like cardboard so I'm wondering if the other tea taste better. From what I've read the third trimester tea has red raspberry leaf plus other herbs.

Thanks

I drink the red raspberry leaf tea.  I actually like the taste, but I do put a little bit of honey in it sometimes.  (I haven't tried the third trimester tea, so no idea of taste of that...)

I've never heard of third tri tea, but I drink RRL tea made from bulk herbs (not grocery store tea bags) as often as I can remember.  I also add honey and prefer it cold.  I just got the okay from my mw to use Gentle Birth Formula for the last 5 weeks of pregnancy.

I've started drinking raspberry leaf tea, and the taste does leave something to be desired. I'll try a bit of honey like the PP said. It won't hurt to try for the possible benefits.

However, I haven't tried the BRU 3T tea, so I'm sorry, this post isn't much help
