I used to have 2-3 cups of green tea daily before, kind of a habit. Now im 10 weeks and not sure if i should continue or stop completely because of caffeine. Pls share what u all did.
Green tea has caffeine, so like coffee, it should be limited. One small cup maybe okay, but don't overdo it. Instead, you can have plain hot water with a squeeze of lemon or ginger tea if you want something warm and comforting. Simple water is always the best!
This is one of those things where it's best to be super careful. Green tea does contain caffeine, and too much caffeine isn't recommended during pregnancy. While some say a very small amount is fine, honestly, for complete peace of mind, just ask your gynac. They'll give you the safest advice for your specific situation.
For me, even small things like green tea were a concern because of my thyroid. So I completely avoided it. Generally, it has caffeine, so it's advised in very limited quantities, if at all. But honestly, for anything new in diet, especially with a medical condition, please ask your gynac. Better safe than sorry.
Hey! Mostly, green tea is okay in moderation, like 1-2 cups a day, because it has caffeine. Too much caffeine is generally advised against. Maybe switch to herbal teas if you want to be extra safe! 🌿 Always good to check with your doc too! 😊
