to regulate and stimulate contractions for labor, will labor stop after you stop taking the tea?

If all you are going to say is DO NOT do it, bla bla bla, keep it to yourself please. I want a real answer. I know the risks.

I dont think the labor contractions will compleatly stop, if your body is ready for labor the tea will make it come on, if your body is not than your contractions will not regulate but just be a compleate pain. I tried niple stimulation and some kind of vitaim i read about 2 weeks befor delivery, I had contractions the whole two weeks and slowly dialated but it was the worst most uncomfortable two weeks ever. I agree with you not wanting to hear "dont do it" I was the same way, I wanted it over. I say if you feel comfortable with trying it go for it. You have probably heard it befor but sex put me into labor with my first, and walking did it for my 2nd. you may also be told not to try it because if you start to dialate but nothing else happens you'll be induced and its terrible pain...blah blah blah, all labor is painful and i was induced with my second because i was 5 cm dialated but baby wouldn't drop, i also had to have my water broken, no more or less pain than wit my first.

If your body isn't ready you will not go into labor, and yes, and false contractions started with cohosh will quit when you stop the teas.
I would be worried about drinking enough of the tea to produce the results you are looking for- the bad outweighs the good here.
If you are 100% set on inducing your own labor, ask your midwife or doctor for pitocin...or break your water..just know that preemies have a much greater risk for complications than does a full term baby.

I asked my midwife about it and she said it don't work, she said all it does is hurt your liver and rise your blood pressure because i was trying to find something to start contractions too. I tried Castor Oil and it did nothing for me.
