(I'm a bit behind on Lactnet -- sorry if there are other posts to this that I haven't seen yet). Blue cohosh tea can be taken to stimulate labor, so there must be some type of oxytoxic property in it. I don't know if it would work for MER or not -- but why not? Thanks to two cups of the tea in the morning, Timothy arrived in the evening. (I presume thanks to the tea -- though I might have gone into labor on my own, I suppose....) Jan Barger
