Why is it dangerous to have more then 1 cup of caffeine a day?

Question

I'm almost 27 weeks I have maybe 1 a day. But I'm just curious. Why is it frowned upon?

Answer

I think it's mostly dangerous in the first tri, because lots of caffeine has been linked to fertility problems and miscarriage. And then later on, you baby gets whatever you eat. You don't give a one year old a soda, if that makes sense...

Answer

I've never really understood either. All I know is I have about 4 cups of coffee a week on days I have work to wake up and that's really it. My mom always jokes about how she drank as much caffeine as she wanted and her 3 kids are pretty much normal

Answer

I've read that it can thin the placenta and cause complications.

Answer

No more than 200mg a day. You're fine!

Answer

It's not a cup they measure by it's mg. So you're not supposed to have more than 200 mg a day.  I know caffeine can cause problems with the fetus but i can't remember exactly what they were.

Answer

I drank a ton with my first born and he is fine. Iv been told it can cause ADHD but nothing proves that. Also been told it can cause other problems that are more stab in the dark than facts.
