I've been told 8oz is fine in early Preg and 12oz in the third trimester. I looove coffee, so I'll still drink a cup here and there. Just be careful if you also drink soda or eat a lot of chocolate!

I didn't do caffeine like the first 16 weeks of pregnancy I still try not to do a lot. but I do drink caffeinated coffee every morning now I read that there are no studies to show moderate amounts are bad

Oh OK that's good whatever best for you and baby.

My mid wife told me not to stop drinking caffein because I was a heavy caffein drinker before I got pregnant she said to drink one glass a day or as needed for my head aches

No, but I have a high risk pregnancy so I'm a little scared. A little more careful. Think I will start relaxing once I hit the third trimester

@alhynele, did you have a miscarriage or loose a baby to be so scared when are you going to get papered for the baby.

I have been craving coffee and I drink it once in a while. No more than one cup a day and if I do... I always up my water intake that day... I don't know if it helps but it's what I do

I crave coffee and wasn't much of a coffee drinker before pregnancy. I just drink a random cup of decaf or half n half caf and decaffeinated.

I love coffee but I'm not drinking any because doctors say that caffeine during pregnancy should be avoided as it can cause birth defects. They say if u do drink any it should be limited to less than 200 milligrams per day. I'm not taking the chances lol. I'm so scared of something going wrong :( I haven't even started buying baby stuff because I'm scared to jinx it.

I don't like coffee but I drink a lot of hot coco

I drink it every blue moon it gets rid of my headaches

OMG when tell I LOVE COFFEE, I mean I real lovedddddd coffee. only thing better then hot coffee, was ice coffee. I was literally addicted to McDonald's coffee (Arabic Coffee). Hot & Ice only $1 any size any flavor. I drank Carmel Ice Coffees maybe 4 times a day EVERYDAY this Summer.
Since i became preggo, the smallest sips gives me crazy acid reflux!!
I think I was heavy on coffee bcuz I was also a cigarette smoker tho.
