Now, what I am confused about is if it helps expel the placenta, if it is given in late weeks couldn't it lead to a premature labor? I have never used it but am thinking I might go to GNC or the pet store and get some for after whelp. My girl is on day 57.
Dee,

No need to be confused.....It was another person that stated to give it after whelp to expel the placenta. I'm a firm believer of Oxy after the whelp. Just don't want to take my girl's lives in my hands....

Yes, I do give it during the last trimester....it what it does is help with strengthening of uterine walls, pain during the whelping process....no, it doesn't cause premature labor. I do use the Syrup from Revival a bit different than the tea.

You and I know that premature labor can be caused by a multitude of reasons......something wrong with the pups, not enough room for a mother to carry full term and yes, some meds......
