Anyone taking the tea or capsules?

How many tablets do you take or cups do you drink a day?

I'm 36 weeks and just started drinking 3 cups a day but wondering whether it's safe to take the capsules too.

Does anyone have any experience? TIA.

I'm 38 weeks and drinking one cup every day or so for the last two weeks. I really struggle to drink flavoured tea so that's about all I can manage! Was told the capsules are much more effective but to start them from 38 weeks, 3 capsules x3 times a day. Sounds alot and again I haven't got around to it so I can't comment on results. I haven't yet reached the point where I'm desperate to have my baby out, so that's probably why I'm being quite lax! Good luck though Smile
