Personally, I'd go the double-brew method because nothing can take the place of real tea. I'll be in big trouble if I ever have to give it up.Alicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17347383508567826146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12436268.post-50861019015201998152008-10-06T14:35:00.000-07:002008-10-06T14:35:00.000-07:00Great advice, Stephanie!Great advice, Stephanie!Linda Jenningshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00077587697557992493noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12436268.post-65082336190293085042008-10-06T14:04:00.000-07:002008-10-06T14:04:00.000-07:00Thank you to all my wise commenters!Thank you to all my wise commenters!Stephhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05753205572837649406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12436268.post-18857922382309999382008-10-06T12:28:00.000-07:002008-10-06T12:28:00.000-07:00I blogged about this when I was pregnant: http://w...I blogged about this when I was pregnant: http://www.littlerinch.com/?p=158<BR/><BR/>The short answer is Raspberry Leaf Tea. It's not just a "safe" tea for during pregnancy, but it's actually good specifically for pregnancy - it tones the uterus and prepares it for birth. It also helps your body get back into shape after the birth. <BR/><BR/>Rooibos and Chamomile, as already mentioned, are also great. I also made an infusion of ginger with honey a few times a week. Too much ginger is not a good thing, but in moderation it's fine (not to mention so tasty). Steeping fennel works well for upset tummies.<BR/><BR/>By the way, chamomile and fennel are also good for babies. And I'll start giving Rooibos to my son before long.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12436268.post-37138394676458304642008-10-06T10:43:00.000-07:002008-10-06T10:43:00.000-07:00hello there,I would love to share what I did!

I think the health food stores are the best place to find yummy tea, that is still good for mommy and baby.<BR/>They also have a great tea out there to help with morning sickness!<BR/>Thanks fo rasking my opinion, steph!Philigryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12830448931204543522noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12436268.post-57340579674460604312008-10-05T21:17:00.000-07:002008-10-05T21:17:00.000-07:00What a great site...

(I like doing that, you see:)...<BR/><BR/>I really loved Chamomile when I was pregnant with my now 9 year old son. I'm actually drinking it now, but am not pregnant. <BR/><BR/>It's such a soothing, calming tea that has medicinal purposes for relieving any stomach issues (not that pregnancy is an "issue" by any means!)...<BR/><BR/>I agree, rooibos is another great pregnancy tea... The taste is nutty and slightly sweet and also is a healthy alternative to caffeinated options.<BR/><BR/>Congrats on your pregnancy and the best of luck!<BR/><BR/>Cheers,<BR/><BR/>NajaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12436268.post-8626462595089418362008-10-05T19:55:00.000-07:002008-10-05T19:55:00.000-07:00Hi Steph,Nice little summary on Tea and Pregnancy!...Hi Steph,<BR/>Nice little summary on Tea and Pregnancy!
