DO NOT USE COHOSH unless you are under the direct supervision of a caregiver who is experienced with this induction method. There are too many potential risks!

Black and Blue cohosh are traditionally used to cause a miscarriage in the first weeks of pregnancy. If they do not accomplish this, then the woman should probably seriously consider a real abortion, because both of these herbs can cause fetal mutations in the early stages of pregnancy.
In the same way they can cause your body to miscarry, they can also indce labor in full term pregnancies.
You can get them at the helath food store in either pills, loose herbs, or tinctures.

I had some years ago and I got it at a health food store. I don't remember which one. I was taking it while trying to get pregnant. Make sure you check with your doctor or midwife before taking it while pregnnt. Good Luck!

I agree with Momma2 also. Do NOT take it. It can be dangerous to the baby even at full term.
