Quit Caffeine or no?

Question

I’m in my 5th month ttc and im confused if i should quit drinking coffee or not. I currently just drink 1 or 2 cups a day. It obviously hasn’t happened for me in 5 months but idk if caffeine has anything to do with it. I also had a miscarriage in June so im not sure if that also gets affected by caffeine

Answer

Continue enjoying your coffee!!! There’s no reason to quit!

Answer

I wouldn’t. When I was TTC I made the mistake of over analyzing everything I did and it got obsessive and unhealthy. You are a whole person outside of longing for a baby and you shouldn’t deprive yourself of little human comforts. After a few months and a loss, I picked caffeine up, and even enjoyed minor social drinking at a brewery up until 10 days or so before I found out I was pregnant. I’m 17+3 today and I mostly stay away from caffeine but 2-3 times a week I’ll indulge in a half calf or a coke. Anything can happen at any point and it’s important for your mental health to do little things that retain your identity

Answer

Is switching to decaff an option for you? I've read a lot about caffeine when trying to conceive and when pregnant. Different places offer different advice, some say 200mg daily is fine, others say it isn't. I've had 3 losses so anything stresses me out wondering if I can do this or do that. So I switched to caffeine free everything, even caffeine free soda. Call me crazy, but I'd rather just quit it instead of worrying.
