I had coffee with a friend this morning and the baby started kicking a lot! Now I feel nothing and my stomach feels super hard and tight. Has anyone else experienced this??
@ahbabb, Don't feel guilty you definitely didn't do anything wrong. Like I said I drank coffee through my first 3 pregnancies with no problems it wasn't until my 4th pregnancy I had any issues. Every once in awhile it's nice to feel normal and do something not baby related.
@soontobemomof5, yeah my doctor told me it would be fine if it is in moderation but I'm a ftm so I'm probably overly cautious about every single thing lol! But I do feel super guilty about indulging now!!
@ahbabb, I never realized it did that until I ended up in labor and delivery with my last thinking I was in labor early. I always drank coffee during my pregnancies because they said it was ok but I never thought about drinking extra water after.
@soontobemomof5, I haven't drank a lot of coffee since I found out I was pregnant because I was too scared but I just wanted to feel normal and go hang out with a friend lol but thank you for the tip! I'm gonna take it easy and hopefully that will help!
Drink a lot of water and lay down it should go away. Coffee can cause you to get dehydrated which causes Braxton hicks and your uterus to be irritable. I had to stop drinking coffee because every time I did I was in pain so it wasn't worth it to me.
