Caffeine?! Please ladies I need your opinions!

Question

The father of my child and I have recently gotten into a heated debate about caffeine intake during pregnancy. While he believes that I shouldn't be drinking or eating anything with caffeine at all, I think that it is okay to have a little bit everyday. 
I am one of those people that get face splitting migraines if I do not at least have a can of CocaCola due to caffeine withdrawals. Seriously, ladies, these headaches are unbearable. I will cry and be absolutely useless for the whole day if I have to endure the pain. But my s/o gets genuinely annoyed with me when I have any at all. We've done a lot of readings of different articles but we still stand by both of our original opinions. 
So, I come to the beautiful women of the Glow community! What is your opinion? Yes to caffeine or no?

Answer

Acording to most obgyns 250 mg of caffeine a day is sage during pregnancy.  That's two cups a day.
I had my morning cup of coffee along with my venti frappucino every day for 41 weeks and my daughter is healthy as she can possibly be. She's almost 7 months old

Answer

My doctor tells me to drink one to two cups every day. He assures me that the headaches and vomiting I get if I don't are much more harmful to the baby.

Answer

200-250mg caffeine a day is perfectly safe!

Answer

My ob told me I can have 1-2 cups of caffeine a day, I also get horrible headaches without it. I usually drink one caffeinated drink a day just to avoid the headache. A coke a day isn't gonna hurt you or baby any 😉

Answer

Many obgyn's agree to limit to 200mg of caffeine a day. I never drank coffee in the first place so when I have my occasional soda or iced Capp I do so with no worries 😋

Answer

My dr allows me 1 cup of coffee, soda whatever caffeine a day

Answer

My doc said the same thing the rest of these girls are saying. Have you SO go to an appointment with you, so he can hear that a cup/soda a day isn't going to hurt you.

Answer

200mg a day. Your boyfriend is wrong.

Answer

I didn't know I was pregnant for 2.5 months and had way too much caffeine along with alcohol... oops. My daughter is four years old and healthy and strong. A little bit of caffeine is fine. The only time caffeine affected my children is when I was breastfeeding. I now don't drink anything caffeinated because my son will become too fussy.

Answer

I drink at least a cup of coffee or have a bottle of soda every day. My daughter is almost a year old and perfectly healthy, well ahead on all her milestones, and has a perfect temperament! I'm currently 6 months pregnant with my third and still enjoy my daily caffeine with no worries!
