Experience of dates, rasberry leaf tea, or other remedies to naturally induce labour

[SolaceSoul]

I would love to hear what people's experiences and thoughts are of naturally starting their labour

18 hour labour with first.
with the second, on the due date I drank 8 cups of raspberry leaf tea, went in to labour three hours later, 3 hour labour.
with the third, six days overdue, drank probably ten cups of raspberry tea, labour that night, 25 minutes.
I have been told that raspberry leaf tea makes contractions more efficient. Seemed to work with me as I only had two with the third!

I tried all of these and had my baby at 41+6 after a 24 hour labour.

Didn't bother with my second!
