Im used to 2-3 cups chai a day, cant really start my morning without it honestly. Now im 9 weeks and my MIL keeps saying cut it down completely. How many cups is actually fine? pls share what u all do.
Yaar I was same, couldnt give up my chai. Actually my gynac said one to two small cups max is okay, just dont make it super strong. I switched to weak chai and felt fine.
My amma always said too much tea is not good for baby, but everything in limit is okay. I asked my doctor also and she said one cup ok. So I just had it once a day with breakfast.
One cup a day is fine, dont go beyond that. With both my pregnancies I kept it to morning chai only and cut out the evening one. Caffeine adds up faster than you think so just keep an eye.
My doc told me total caffeine should stay under around 200mg in a day, and that includes coffee, cola, chocolate too not just tea. So if you only have one cup of chai you have lots of room. I tracked it for a few weeks then stopped worrying.
I just reduced to one cup and started having more milk and nimbu pani instead, cheaper and felt lighter too. No need to buy any fancy pregnancy teas, normal chai in limit is fine.
