Have only tried the homeopathic remedies, as opposed to the herbs. The homeopathic remedies did not work. I've heard the herbs are much stronger, but because I've also read some of the risks, I've bypassed trying the herbs altogether. I work in the natural products industry and have worked for a few "herbal supplement" companies and know how potent and dangerous herbs can be if one's body is not in balance or if you have a preexisting condition (ie contraindications during pregnancy). It's too risky ... A couple more weeks of baby hibernating is better than fetal distress or worse. Hope this helps!
(Btw, I'm almost 41 weeks with baby #3 ... Babies 1 & 2 arrived at 37 and 38 weeks, so I'm going crazy because still pregnant!!!)
It worked immediately with DS at 39 weeks. But maybe he was ready anyway? It was an absolute flop this time. I'm still very pregnant with no signs of labor in sight.
