Good morning, hot momma's!!!! Were any of y'all coffee drinkers before pregnancy and still have a cup now?

Had a cup this morning. I don't do it every day though

I was iced coffee I haven't had any tho since I became pregnant I was scared

I was drinking coffee every day and still do.

I am gonna be entering my second trimester here soon. At first the thought of coffee grossed me out. This morning I woke up wanting some like I used to all of the time. So I'm having a cup.

I can't stomach hot coffee anymore but I do have my caramel iced coffee everyday.

@mantha823, I don't drink soda much so do you think one cup a day is bad? You've done this baby thing a million times😂😘

I always had a coffee everyday with each of my children all were and still are healthy!! Always got a medium 😊

What is wrong with having decalf? I drank decalf. First trimester is vital with not having caffeine. I just didn't even mess with it until the very end and I craved Pepsi but that was it

Thanks @mantha823 😘

Like I get nothing is wrong with baby but you really don't know until they are older. That's just how I feel though

You're allowed a cup a day. I usually have mine in the morning when I'm starting to wake up. Then I won't have any soda unless it's gingerale if my stomach hurts. If I'm out an about out to eat if I get a soda I make sure it's caffeine free. I was a huge coffee drinker before I got pregnant and got really bad headaches when I stopped when I got pregnant so now I have 1 cup a day.

That's how I was too @mamatobe8516 . During my really bad morning sickness days I couldn't even stand the smell. But today I woke up craving one. @edomke I don't like decaf. Never have and I never will.

Starbucks decalf is the best shit ever. Splurge and buy it at the store. Omg the only decalf I like! It's rich and I wouldn't even know it was decalf

@edomke, what can be wrong with baby later? I drink coffee with my kids

Idk when it comes to caffeine I just didn't mess with it. I did break some rules but not really. And stuff like adhd I know there is no link to it they say but like I said I just personally believe there is. And causing sleep issues as well. Which is an actual thing. I didn't start drinking caffeine until I was done breastfeeding @hlanc4 I just would eat healthy and that helped with energy

@edomke, ok I understand

@edomke, thank you for your insight. I truly appreciate it. But every mother is different. I admire strong women like you who can withhold their cravings for 'bad' things. I was mainly asking for those moms like myself who drink coffee.

I'm not bashing anyone I promise lol I just didn't mind decalf Starbucks specially ! It's pretty damn good @hlanc4 @bwitmer

@bwitmer, anytime love

@edomke, lol because there's no caffeine! There have been multiple studies done on the benefits of it in moderation. (and there's no "rule" saying pregnant women can't have any...you just limit your intake.) You can believe those links exist but there's no evidence of it. @bwitmer it's not bad. Daily recommended caffeine limit is 200mg. I'm a huge coffee drinker, but this pregnancy my gut has been extra sensitive to it, so I've only been able to have a cup every few days or so.

Thanks @mommagotbump16 ☺️
