V-6, Green Tea, Robo how much/often?

I have heard of some of you ladies taking these things but I don't ever hear of suggested "doses". I know that some OB's suggest the Robo but how much? and how often? Do you just take the recommended dose on the package?

Does anyone know what the V-8 and Green Tea do? I know that the Robo thins out CM.

Thank you for any info that you can give.

OOPs I meant V-8 in the title... hee hee. I was thinking of B6 which I am also taking in a B-complex.

I've been taking Robitussin this month and have taken the recommended dosage of 2 teaspoons, 3x daily. A trick with this is to hold your nose when taking it since it really is disgusting!

I tried the green tea but just couldnt do it, didnt like the taste. It helps flush out your system as well and is very good for your body bsided TTC if you handle the taste. It also has less caffine than coffee.

I cant comment on the V-6 since I have no idea what it does or how it tastes.

The Robi really works for me and def suggest it to everyone else. Good luck

One last thing, I heard a lot of girls take baby aspirirn but someone on the TTC your first child posted that it is not good to take unless directed by a doctor, so stay away from that.

Lets see, I was told that the green tea also thins out cm. I have no idea what v-8 is for. the green tea you can just drink 2 glasses a day. I have heard that most people dont like it but i think it is good, I make it just like I would ice tea and i sweetin it just a bit, just like i do normal tea, I like it.I am thinking of taking the B6 also. How do you take it? what is the brand? I dont know the dosage on the robo. Maybe someone else on here will. Hope I could help. good luck

Put Splenda in your tea. It's sucralose and not bad for you ttc or pg. It is natural and the only reason it is better for you is that they have replaced a molecule in sugar with a chlorine molecule so that it can't be metabolized by your body and flushes right out causing absolutely no harm to your body or any little beanies. So use it as your sweetener from now on.

Also the wal-mart brand tussin plain DOES NOT make me gag!! I was so surprised when I took it last night that it didn't have that nasty make-me-want-to-barf taste.

Make sure the robotusin is the kind w/out any letters following it, like dm or cm. you just want the plain kind. the others might dry up cm.
