Coffee while pregnant?

Question

Would one cup of coffee a day while pregnant be okay? I don't drink anything else but water. I am not currently pregnant. Just trying to see if I should go ahead & stop drinking coffee since we will be ttc soon. I have heard so many horror stories about coffee while pregnant. Like birth defects, etc.. But then I've heard that pregnant women can have uo to 200mg of caffiene a day.

Answer

Horror stories about birth defects due to average caffeine intake?! ABSOLUTELY NOT.
People love to talk out their asses.
U CAN have up to 200mg or two regular size cups of coffee daily.  Nothing,  NOTHING will go wrong.
I've been having  my venti frappucino DAILY, along with CUBAN espresso(colada). I'm 38 weeks and my daughter is developing on time and everything looks perfect.
Also, my obgyn didn't have an issue with my coffee intake.

Answer

I drank LOADS of coffee and conceived just fine. and while pregnant I limit myself to a cup a day if I need it. I wouldn't worry about it but listen to your body :)

Answer

You can have 200mg of caffeine a day. I drink coffee maybe once every other week, because the only kind I like is Starbucks Caramel mocha Frapachino 😍
You can look up any of their drinks online and see how much caffeine is in it. If I get a medium I can actually have 2 a day if I wanted but I'd go broke lol 
Doesn't even phase my baby. I'd hoped it would make her wiggly and excited but nope. She either stays sleeping or just moves about like normal

Answer

1 cup a day is fine.

Answer

A cup or 2 won't hurt. Im nine weeks and drink a couple cups a week. I love caffeine so cutting it out completely is something I couldn't do without major headaches. So I just drink a little bit here and their along with water juice and milk.

Answer

Yeah. A cup or 2 a day won't hurt anything. You have to cut out so much during pregnancy. I say have your coffee and enjoy it! But they always say if you have any questions, ask your doctor. That's always the best bet. Something about a medical professional answering your questions puts your mind at ease. Lol

Answer

When I crave coffee I try to have a frappe or cappuccino since they have less caffeine. The sugar probably isn't much better for you though lol

Answer

I think there can be issues having too much caffeine when you're trying to conceive - http://www.resolve.org/about-infertility/optimizing-fertility/caffeine-does-it-affect-your-fertility-and-pregnancy.html

No more than 200mg of caffeine per day is a really common recommended max once you become pregnant.

Answer

I drink a lot of coffee tbh it's like only of the things I crave. on days I do have coffee, I don't drink anything else caffeinated
