Taste
Pros:
"This stuff is super tasty, I love tea and really enjoyed drinking it."
"This tea has a great taste and is good hot or iced, though with the tropical flavors you may prefer it iced."
"This tea actually tasted good and has a fruity flavor. It tastes good both hot and cold."
"This tea taste great! It’s one of the best tasting pregnancy teas I have ever tried."
"The flavor is amazing!!"
"The most delicious tea that I have ever tasted!"
"Definitely one of the best teas I’ve ever tasted."
Cons:
"The first cup tastes pretty good after 10 minutes of steaping but the second cup is excessively weak in flavor."
"However, it’s definitely a let down. I wish it was sweetened or had the option to be sweetened like the floral because it tastes bland."
"Tastes like nothing but Splenda."
"I didn’t realize this tea is sweetened. It was almost too sweet to drink."
"If you leave it out for a couple of hours it will have a horrible scent and you wont be able to take it into your mouth."
"The flavor isn’t the best but isn’t terrible."
"So the flavor of this at first is good. Then the artificial sweetener kicks in! WHY??"
Packaging and Quality
Pros:
"The packaging is very pretty."
"I love that it's USDA-certified organic, free from GMOs, and third-party tested."
"I can also say that the bags are super cute."
"This is the most delicious tea I’ve ever had. It’s great quality all around and has top-notch, organic ingredients."
"Loose leaf blend and you can see the quality."
"The tea is really great quality and very fresh and well packaged."
"The presentation of the bags is beautiful."
Cons:
"I’ve noticed 3 tea bags so far with holes big enough for lots of tea to get through, leaving behind a mess in the bag and in my tea."
"I bought this after reviewing the ingredients but I failed to realize the tea bag is plastic."
"I haven’t had contractions or anything."
"The addition of fennel is questionable because it's not considered a safe herb to take while pregnant as it is linked to miscarriage."
"The only drawback is that it says you can use one bag 2x, but I find the second cup is just too watery and I'm not sure how much you're getting in that cup."
"Furthermore, several of the bags tore as I took the tab off of them or were torn in the bag."
"The tea bags I received this time were all torn open! The tea was totally loose and some bags even empty."
Effectiveness
Pros:
"I really think this helped prep my body for labor."
"Long story short, I dilated to 10cm within 1 hour."
"I’m sure every body is different but it worked for me. I did not tear and it’s my first child."
"Pretty tasty. Not sure if it’s a coincidence but water broke after a week of drinking everyday! 3.5 weeks early."
"I only drank 4 cups of this tea!! 2 cups on the 30th, 2 cups on the 31st, & baby boy was born at 4:26am on the 1st!!!"
"I had a natural birth even the nurse told me 'you make labor seem so easy'."
"I swear by Pink Stork products! Utilized their fertility teas and supplements to help get us on track for a viable pregnancy after facing a prior miscarriage and 9 months later, used the labor prep tea to naturally induce labor."
Cons:
"I asked my doctor when he recommended starting to drink this and he actually said not to because herbal remedies like this are not tested well enough in his opinion."
"I still had to be induced and tore."
"I can definitely tell you this doesn’t induce labor."
"I am not sure if this tea has something to do with the early delivery and precipitous labor, but I will not be drinking it again for baby #2."
"Disappointed, almost 3 whole days of prodromal labor."
"Not sure how well it actually helped with labor prep as I had to be induced!"
"I don't know for sure if I can correlate my easy labor with this tea."
Value
Pros:
"The flavor is sweet without being overwhelming, and even in the Texas heat it is still a refreshing drink."
"Honestly I hate tea and normally cannot keep up. But I have to say this tastes sweet and delicious."
"This tea is delicious. It feels refreshing and nourishing."
"Love this tea so much! There are 30 bags in a cute little cylinder and it gets you 2 cups per teabag."
"I got the sweet floral flavor and I’m in love with it. Tastes yummy and very calming."
"It tastes fantastic (and I’m very picky about tea)!"
"The flavor was sweet but I liked it a lot better ice cold rather then hot."
Cons:
"Tea is good however extremely expensive for 15 servings and its ghetto that they market it as 30 please raise your hand of your gonna use a tea bag 2xs."
"At $15 for 15 tea bags this is an expensive homeopathic attempt at 'supporting your body as you near delivery,' even if each bag is meant to brew 2 cups of tea."
"It’s a bit pricey but for the taste and the benefits, I think it’s worth it."
"I think it’s a bit expensive for the amount you get."
"It’s fairly expensive for the amount you get and only one use per tea bag."
"The taste is so bland and the price is too high for a tea!!"
"So I feel like the price for 15 “good” servings is high."
