Im a total chai person, used to have like 3-4 cups a day before. Now im pregnant and trying to cut down but mornings feel incomplete without it yaar. How much is actually okay in a day?
Stick to maximum 1-2 small cups of tea a day, and keep it light. High caffeine isn't good for the baby's birth weight, so don't overdo it. If you have a severe tea habit, try switching to milk or warm water with lemon for some of those cravings.
I only have one small cup of light ginger tea in the morning, which helps me feel fresh before my light prenatal yoga session. Since caffeine can affect your heart rate, keeping it to a minimum is best. Make sure to check with your doctor about your daily limits.
Hey, don't stress too much! You don't have to completely give up your beloved chai. Just limit it to 1 or max 2 small cups a day. Make sure it's not too strong, and you are totally good to go!
I am still pregnant and honestly, my morning starts with tea cravings! I have restricted myself to just one small cup after breakfast. Do you guys also get mild headaches if you reduce your tea intake? How are you managing the cravings?
According to medical guidelines and what my gynac explained, you should keep your daily caffeine intake below 200 mg. One standard cup of Indian milk tea contains around 40-50 mg of caffeine. So, having 1 to 2 small cups a day is perfectly safe and won't cause any harm.
