chamomile cause uterine contractions?

[ileenback]

I was reading about chamomile earlier today & said causes uterine contractions....anyone ever heard of this!?

I've never heard of this, I always have chamomile and spearmint tea everynight before bed, even when pregnant and have had no problems with it at all

That's super scary because I loooooove tea...my sis rubbed some chamomile lotion on my son earlier today & I was reading about it & that's what popped up. I don't intend to drink any to go into labor but made me think about women who have & lost their baby. Very intense stuff.........

I looked into it a bit with my last pregnancy and i just figured its best to be safe than sorry... i kinda found conflicting articles on it, some said its safe, some said not... so i just avoid it while prego... but maybe its just in the first trimester even... it was a couple years ago and i cant quite remember?... it seemed there were a few types of tea to avoid also... very annoying not knowing for sure for whats what...
