Caffeine???

Question

Hi all. Some how I bought regular coffee rather than decaf last time I bought coffee (I’m guessing a week maybe two weeks ago????) 
My husband realized this this morning and now I’m truly stressing... I’ve increased my coffee intake recently with the colder temperatures and I’m curious if you all think I should have concern for the baby. 
I will not be drinking anymore, it’s been for about a week no more than two... should I be worried?

Answer

No your fine !! I drink cup of Starbucks coffee or tea everyday. Your allow to have up to 200mg max a day.

Answer

I wouldn’t worry at all I didnt give up coffee this pregnancy. I had one cup(x-large) a few times a week & baby n I are fine.

Answer

Personally I wouldn’t be. I haven’t stuck to the caffeine count in so long I drink about 3 cups of tea a day and eat chocolate which contains caffeine and my baby is perfectly fine. If your worried just drop it back down

Answer

I drink caffeinated coffee every. single. day. with all my pregnancies. I’m drinking some right now! 😋 ☕️ You’re allowed to have 200 mg per day, which is equivalent to two small cups or one large. You’re fine, sweetie!

Answer

I got so freaked out with caffeine during my first pregnancy, I didn’t drink any until well after 20 weeks. Then I drank very little. I don’t think I would have survived my second or third pregnancies without caffeine. Hell, even my headache medicine from my OB has caffeine in it right now!

Answer

Why are you worried? Caffeine, in moderation, is fine. Did someone tell you you shouldn’t have coffee? If so, they’re working with outdated info.

Answer

Yesterday I was reading an article (with medical publications as sources) about caffeine influencing baby through breast milk and I remember they also mentioned what I heard from my doc: in pregnancy up to 3 cups of coffee are considered safe. In first 3 months of breastfeeding caffeine is not recommended in general as it stays in babies body for much longer than in more mature body, however baby can be somehow "resistant" if you were a regular coffee drinker during your pregnancy. After 3 months the effect on the baby isn't considered significant.

Answer

One cup a day says its fine..i personally dont drink any caffeine but thats a choice i made for myself ans my baby...here is some of the reasoning why..

Answer

My doctor actually recommended a cup of coffee/day because I was having issues with low blood pressure. I think it’s more overly cautious that they recommend limiting caffeine

Answer

You are allowed 200mg caffeine per day.  Instant coffee is usually around 60mg I think, with nespresso around 80 & some dolce gusto around 120- probably the same as a starbucks or something.  So unless you are eating massive amounts of chocolate and getting caffeine from there or other drinks then you are fine x
