Eating dates during pregnancy
Just thought I would share this article. Apparently, some studies show that eating dates can shorten your length of labor and help soften your cervix. So if you like dates, it might be worth a try!

They say it doesn't cause early labor. It just helps labor go faster whenever you go into labor naturally.
@Lindsay Trudeauu thanks for clarifying and sharing. Time to pop some dates! lol
I did this along with drinking raspberry leaf tea with my first, plan on starting at 32 weeks with this pregnancy as well
Yep this is true. Started eating 3 dates a day from 37 weeks and had a quick labour!

Question, how soon do we start eating it? Would it cause cervix to soften earlier than it should?
