How much caffeine are you consuming?

Question

Now that I am past 20 week’s, I find myself not worrying as much about caffeine but I should probably keep it in check. I tend to have one cup of regular coffee in the morning and then sometimes I will have a coke in the afternoon. I think this is still within reason but always second guessing..

Answer

Oh my gosh 🙈 I don’t drink coffee so soda is my go to. I sometimes have 2/3 sodas in a day 🙈

Answer

I usually have 2 cups of coffee or a coffee and a Dr Pepper a day. I’m a nursing student and work 12 hour ER shifts so before pregnancy caffeine ran through my veins. Under 200mg/daily is TOUGH for me. 😴

Answer

This is our fourth pregnancy and I haven't stopped caffeine.  I try and limit it to a few cups of whatever a day .. but I'm sure I sometimes go over the "alloted" amount.  This far our 3 children are healthy, happy , super intelligent and were all born a very healthy weight.  I'm not encouraging going caffeine crazy , but I also know it's a guideline.. not a life and death rule

Answer

A cup of caffeinated daily and sometimes a cup of decaf later in the day...

Answer

Less than 200mg a day is recommended by March of dimes. Which they say equals two cups of coffee or three cups of tea. Pop is even less - coke I think is less than 40g of caffeine. 
So you should be fine doll! 
Just check with your OB next time to make sure your heart rate and blood pressure are all a-play.

Answer

I have 3-4 coffees a week. I know I could technically have more but I try to cut down when I'm pregnant.

Answer

I can usually tell if I’ve had too much, and one coffee in the morning with an occasional coke or tea in the afternoon seems to be just about right.

Answer

Chocolate and maybe one soda a week or so. I don’t drink coffee pregnant or not but definitely get caffeine from yummy chocolate 🍫

Answer

I have a cup of coffee in the morning and then if I end up with a coke or a frap or something in the afternoon I try not to worry

Answer

I vary. We don't keep coffee in the house because of pests (the joys of apartment living!), so I usually just have a soda or two a day, tops. But I also have chocolate most days (a handful of Hershey Kisses as a snack), and sometimes I manage to grab a cup of coffee out, and those days I try to skip the soda, but don't always. 😂 Just try to keep drinking lots of water/caffeine free drinks in between to help balance it out!
