Where can I get EPO? I've looked in local shops around here and can't find any. I'm in the US.

I just found it in with the other vitamins and supplements. Try a pharmacy store like rite aid or cvs that might have a bigger selection in your area. Or buy online? Even Walmart carries it.

Lucky you! I'm lazy and buy everything online with free shipping, so it just shows up at my door.

I'm taking 1 capsule per day 1000mg - could I take more at my stage?

Been a bunch more threads asking about RLT and EPO again. Time to bump this up!

Update from me - I used RLT with my dd1's pregnancy and was only pushing for 13mins. I used RLT again for dd2's and also took EPO. My cervix softened and effaced very quickly (1cm dilated, cervix still long at sweep but fully dilated well within 24hours) and I pushed for only 5mins this time highly recommend both!

Hi

What are the doses of RLT and EPO capsules I should take? I see ones ranging from 500mg up to 1500mg!! I am going to start with 1 capsule of RLT from 32 weeks and work up then start EPO from 36 weeks. Any advice or experience welcome

Lol I was just thinking the same earlier today!

My hubby got me a diet Snapple that is rasberry - I tried to explain that this is not RLT but he's like DRINK IT!

Hahaha, someone is getting desperate and anxious!!!

Mt RL tablets (400mg) have just arrived and so have my EPO caps (500mg) I'm 31 weeks now so think I'm Guna start taking the RL now, maybe just 2/day and up it in a week when im 32 weeks but wait to take EPO, not sure when to start with that though, any pointers?

 

[Mazzy17]
