Cant function without my morning chai honestly. Now everyone is telling me to cut it down because of caffeine and milk both. Is one or two cups of milk tea a day fine during pregnancy?
Yaar I couldn't give up my morning cutting chai actually. Doc said one or max two cups a day is okay, dont overdo. Just dont drink it with or right after food, it eats your iron.
Haan ji chai chalega na, bas thoda kam karo. I used to have 3-4 cups before, cut it to one during pregnancy. Replaced others with milk or nimbu pani, felt much better honestly.
My gynac said keep caffeine under control, roughly one to two cups of milk tea a day is generally fine. She mentioned having it between meals not with them, because tea interferes with iron uptake. Coffee counts in the same caffeine budget too.
Yes you can have your chai, just limit it. Too much tea reduces iron absorption and caffeine adds up. I kept it to one cup in the morning and stayed off it right after meals.
