It can't harm, surely.

Might as well give it a go. Do you want to avoid induction? Clary sage oil can help with that (only use over 38 weeks)

What are you drinking it for? There's a popular myth that it brings labour on. That's not true.

What it's meant to do is tone and prepare the womb for birth.

You probably know this, but just mentioning it in case someone on this thread doesn't!

To answer your question, I agree with the PP, it can't hurt, wish I'd remembered to drink it.
