It doesn't put you in labour. It tones your uterus over a period of time so your contractions are more efficient. It also helps with the pushing stage. I doubt it would help during labour unless you enjoy it, then it might help you relax

In that case is it safe for me to start drinking it?
because it sounds nice

You'd be best limiting it hun as it is a uterine stimulant and your body won't be used to it. Most people start with 1 cup per day at 32weeks and then gradually increase to a maximum of 4 cups per day, ie I did it

32-33+6 - 1cup per day
34-35+6 - 2cups per day
36-37+6 - 3cups per day
37+ - 4cups per day

I have a box of tea in my birth box as I quite like the taste and it is refreshing

I wish I'd started it sooner. I meant to, just never got around to it. And I think my uterus needs practice contracting. I'm gonna by some today. Maybe it will help at little.

I took it from 32 weeks, still went 12 days overdue and had to be induced. I was only pushing for 10 mins though and afterbirth was all out 7 seconds after baby!!!
