I had to stop my coffee and was thinking of switching to green tea instead. Im 11 weeks. But then i got confused if green tea is even okay during pregnancy. What do u all do?
Actually i had one cup green tea on some days, no issue yaar. Bas zyada mat piyo, caffeine hota hai usme. Confirm with your gynac once if you drink it daily.
Green tea has caffeine, so my doc said keep it limited, like one small cup a day is okay but dont overdo it. Too much can interfere with iron absorption too. So enjoy occasionally, not by the litre.
I used to drink green tea for fitness before, but during pregnancy i cut it way down because of caffeine. Had it maybe once in a while. Honestly plenty water and a balanced diet does more than green tea anyway.
Its not harmful in small amounts but it does have caffeine, so moderation is the word. I switched mostly to caffeine free herbal stuff to be safe. Best to ask your gynac about your total caffeine for the day.
