Basil and oregano tea to induce labor

Has anyone tried this? If so did it cause contractions? How long after you drank it?... I'm steeping it right now to try it out!!! I'm just curious if anyone else has tried it.

  • I've heard that eating things (like a red sauce) with these ingredients have "worked" to help kick start labor, but I've never heard of making a tea !? Did you make your own ?

  • Ya I found it on justmommies.com, you put 1/4 of the tea cup with basil and oregano leaves and the. You boil water and then pour it over the leaves and let it steep for 5 mins... I just drank some. It wasn't ass bad as I thought it would taste! We will see what happens. I'm 40 weeks tomorrow btw and don't wanna be induced
  • Well ladies... I don't think that it works just an update.... I drank it over an hour and a half ago and have no cramping, no contractions... Nothing! Don't waste your time trying it!
