I just had some coffee...

*spoiled* · Jun 12th, 2008, 11:25 AM

and im 13 weeks... I know I know.. my Dr said that it's fine in moderation and it wasn't like a huge cup of Starbucks.. it is the office coffee that's in a 6 oz. cup.. I couldn't sleep last night and I was sooo sleepy this morning...

Does anyone else sneak coffee or a caffeinated beverage sometimes??

Yes, my doctor said up two cups a day is fine! I drink half a cup every morning. It was hard to get used to at first, but it's worth it.

So no worries. Your doctor is right about it being ok in moderation! Enjoy!

I drank a cup of coffee pretty much every day I was pregnant, except my first trimester, when I had a mild aversion to it (and everything else). DD turned out fine!

I drank caffeine in moderation and have ridiculously healthy children

I think the guideline is something like up to 300mg a day is ok?

wouldn't worry. In moderation it's ok!

I had a cup every now and then throughout my second pregnancy. It is fine in moderation.

i think the 300mg mark is about right on. although starbucks is known for having more caffeine in their drinks than the average. so just beware of that.

I had a cup off and on and my son is fine. I also drank green and white teas, which are lower in caffeine but still have it. As others have said, it's fine in moderation.

yea i totally skipped it with my first but now that im preggo with my 2nd I think i need it more! lol

I sneak a pepsi now and then. As long as its in moderation, don't beat yourself up about it!

mammabyrdie · Jun 13th, 2008, 11:07 PM

I did. A little is fine.

I don't drink coffee but did have two cups of tea each day during my pregnancy and my DD is fine...I would also have a Coke once in awhile but not too often.
