Im such a coffee person, used to have 2-3 cups easily. Now im 9 weeks and feeling guilty every time i even think of having one. How much is okay, or should i just stop completely? confused honestly.
My doctor said a little is okay, she advised keeping caffeine under about 200 mg a day, which is roughly one cup. Too much caffeine is the concern, not a small amount. I switched to one weak coffee a day and felt fine.
Beta you dont have to give it up completely, just keep it small and occasional. Too much can affect sleep and the baby. One cup with your meal is usually fine, but confirm with your doctor.
Actually I am a total coffee person so this worried me yaar. But my gynac said one cup is fine, just dont overdo it. I kept one morning coffee and that satisfied me honestly.
It is not banned, just limit it. I cut down to one cup and counted chai and chocolate into that too since they have caffeine. Dont have many cups through the day, that is the main thing.
