I'm not really a tea drinker but needed to drink the MMT.... since it's not safe for pregnancy anyways the other tea option doesn't make much difference anyways. =/ who knew?.. lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ugh-i-need-a-new-tea#post-866256 Tue, 18 Jun 2013 18:13:36 +0000 Mrs. Oatmeal 866256@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@runsyellowlites: Do you have a Teavana near you? They have a ton of options for you. Another option is the Tetley teas in the pyramid tea bags - they have lots of choices as well! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ugh-i-need-a-new-tea#post-865869 Tue, 18 Jun 2013 15:20:23 +0000 runsyellowlites 865869@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Rainbow Sprinkles: @purrpletulips: Well poop! :/ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ugh-i-need-a-new-tea#post-865864 Tue, 18 Jun 2013 15:17:22 +0000 deerylou 865864@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've had two iced passion tea lemonades in the past week. I was unaware this was a no-no, and am almost 38 weeks.

I did hear the tea versions aren't as much of a concern as if you were taking an herbal supplement. But I can't remember if I read that, or if my midwife practice told me that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ugh-i-need-a-new-tea#post-865845 Tue, 18 Jun 2013 15:07:38 +0000 JerricaBenton 865845@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was too paranoid to drink any herbal teas, too - but I just thought I'd throw it out there that I asked my OB about hibiscus and other herbs in the beginning, and she said that there isn't enough in regular tea (not supplements or things like MMT) to cause any issues, so teas like Celestial Seasonings or Tazo wouldn't be an issue. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ugh-i-need-a-new-tea#post-865840 Tue, 18 Jun 2013 15:04:16 +0000 purrpletulips 865840@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't think MMT is safe during pregnancy, not sure but think that fenugreek is a no no. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ugh-i-need-a-new-tea#post-865839 Tue, 18 Jun 2013 15:04:00 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 865839@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@runsyellowlites: I drink hibiscus tea like every day.......oops?</p> <p>I also love blackberry mojito from Teavanna.</p> <p>But MMT while pregnant is a major no no..... so if you don't want to be drinking hibiscus due to possible pregnancy than I wouldn't drink MM either! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ugh-i-need-a-new-tea#post-865817 Tue, 18 Jun 2013 14:56:36 +0000 rattles 865817@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was going to suggest my fave peach herbal tea but just saw it had hibiscus too.

I just started drinking a pregnancy tea. It wasn't bad, but I don't think my nursing tea is bad, either.</p> <p>I order all my teas from Mountain Rose Herbs. Maybe check there for some? They list all their ingredients. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ugh-i-need-a-new-tea#post-865765 Tue, 18 Jun 2013 14:40:21 +0000 Ash 865765@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@runsyellowlites: Well crap, I just had some passion tea from Starbucks on Sunday. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ugh-i-need-a-new-tea#post-865760 Tue, 18 Jun 2013 14:39:28 +0000 bamblm 865760@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Lemon-ginger?

I hadn't heard that one! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ugh-i-need-a-new-tea#post-865536 Tue, 18 Jun 2013 13:21:49 +0000 runsyellowlites 865536@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am super picky about my teas &amp; I need to drink some of my MMT (which I think is nasty). I normally mix it with some passion tea BUT it has hibiscus in it &amp; that is considered unsafe in pregnancy (no I'm not pregnant... but may be). I don't think I could get a cup of MMT down by itself without puking but due to some issues of only being able to currently nurse from one breast I NEED it!</p> <p>Any suggestions for another fruity tea that DOESN'T have hibiscus? </p>
