My midwife has started recommending it more to prevent hemorrhage -- she said a few midwives she knows really push the rrl and alfalfa and rarely have moms who bleed too much.  I didn't drink much last pregnancy, but I'm planning to drink more this time.  I guess we'll see if it shortens labor at all (shortest labor was 8 hours)!

I drank copious amounts of rrl during pregnancies #2 and #3.  I didn't hemorrhage after those births, but it took a while to get the bleeding to slow down.  Hardly a good sample size to draw any conclusions from, just my own experience!  ;-)

I had to stop drinking my blend for a while. I'm starting to get allergic again. Arg.
