Anyone??
Hi , I think 27 wks is a bit early , I had 3 cups per day from 36 wks which resulted in a quick and easy birth . That was nearly 2 yrs ago , hopefully someone has up to date advice :)
Also took EPO orally from 38 wks , 2 morning and night .
sorry only just now saw this.
Personally I would wait for 32 weeks because it can cause wicked BH contrax (or at least it does for me) and I always felt better only using it when bubs has a pretty good chance of making it on the outside!!!
Red raspberry starting at 34 weeks, EPO at 36-37.
Depending, EPO works quick. So shouldn't start too early.
What does EPO do?
Alright ladies thank you!
EPO softens the cervix.Quote:

EPO if you insert it vaginally, can help get rid of your mucus plug (not unlike having sex with hubby. Personally it didn't work for me - my plug def. came out right away but then nothing happened.
