My husband brews coffee every morning for himself, the smell is so tempting. But hurrying to go to work save me from the temptation :) But on the weekends, I let myself drink half a cup.

Ditto on what Brooke said. I have read lots of research and spoke with several doctors and they all say the same thing. I don't have to cut my caffeine out completely. Be conscious of it and limit it-moderation is key. somedays I go caffeine free, others I have my one cup caffeinated tea or a soda.

i am not real worried about caffine, because I only drink a few cups of tea a week; but I drink a lot of decaf tea. Does anyone know the effects of decaf?

Just make sure you are drinking lots of water. Tea is a diuretic. I too drink a couple of cups a week of regular tea and then more often decaf, I just make sure you follow it up with a lot of water each day.

 

New Study - March 28

There was a new study that I just read about today stating that they are now finding links to caffeine and miscarriage in early pregnancy. I gave up caffeine when ttc but I have had some chocolate since. If you can, try to limit your intake to one or two small cups a day and maybe switch to decaf for any other cups you wish to have.

 

Links - March 29

do you have any links to the new study?
