Is caffeine really bad during pregnancy? I love Dr pepper and it seems like I crave soda more now since I'm pregnant but I have been seeing all these articles online saying caffeine can cause miscarriage, birth defects and a low birth rate in babies. I don't want to do anything that harms my baby so I'm planning on quitting soda if I can lol

@saraguinn23, one dr. Pepper or coffee a day isn't going to hurt anything

One or two cups a day isn't bad for you at all. My OB has always told me the same thing. It's fine. Just don't over due it.

I still drink coffee. My doc told me since I've been drinking it everyday before I was pregnant a grande size from Starbucks is ok.

@saraguinn23, My daughter was born at 25 weeks and they actually gave her caffeine in the nicu to help her grow. As long as you aren't drinking energy drinks I think it's fine.

U can still drink soda every once in a while that's what I do.
