Question: is it okay to drink coffee while pregnant?

Bummer lol I really like coffee lol but hey it is what it is@shortizzie

@shortizzie, thank you!

You can in small amounts usually if you not like droning pots of coffee daily you should be able to unless your doctor tells you otherwise

I quit for the first trimester, and just started again last week after I called my midwife and told her I'm tired of feeling like a Mombie. She said 8oz a day is fine :)

I've tried to hold off as much as possible but some days.... You just need it! I have plenty of friends who drank coffee while pregnant. Everything is ok in moderation. I just make sure I drink lots of water after to keep a balance.

@kerilyn24, thanks!!!

@kmrie, thank you!

I do! I didn't until about 16 weeks. Since then I'll have a cup of half caf a day or decaf. Maybe twice a week I'll have a cup of regular. Just don't drink too much☺️

I think I'll just wait till I'm farther along to start drinking it again. I just feel like I need need a energy booster. I'm tired a lot

I waited till my first trimester was over but now I drink a cup a day. When I get closer tho I think I'll stop again just so my newborn doesn't have caffeine withdrawals

you can have 200 mg of caffiene per day which equals out to two small cups of coffee or tea per day. You can also substitute the regular coffee for decaf. Thats what Im doing. I indulge in one or two decafs a week from Dunkin or Starbucks
