I love my green tea but went easy on it during pregnancy because of the caffeine. One occasional cup didnt bother me. Just dont go overboard, balance it with other fluids.

I kept it to just one light cup sometimes. Family kept saying drink more milk instead, which I did. For amount, your gynac is the right person to ask ma.

Haan thoda chalega na, just not too much because caffeine hota hai usme. Main bas kabhi kabhi ek cup leti thi. Apne gynac se quantity confirm kar lo.

In small amounts it's usually fine, it's the caffeine you watch. Ask doc for your limit.

It does contain caffeine so moderation is the key. A cup now and then is generally considered fine, but too much isnt great. Best to confirm your limit with your doctor.

I used to have green tea daily but cut down in pregnancy since it has caffeine. My gynac said one small cup occasionally is okay, not multiple. I switched mostly to plain warm water and walks instead.
