Hi,
I'm seeking information on raspberry leaf tea and nettle tea used as a tonic in pregnancy; I am in my first trimester and still nursing my 18.5month old son and I was wondering if it is still safe to consume the above tonics while breastfeeding? Thank you very much and all my green blessings as a green witch sister and initiate to the wise woman ways :)
Hello!
Neither herb is on Susun's list of ones to avoid during pregnancy and breastfeeding... as long as you are doing them as nourishing herbal infusions: http://nourishingherbalinfusions.com/ . Indeed, she recommends them for various issues in her book The Childbearing Year...
