What damage if any does caffine (like coffee) do to a baby?

caffine is a stimulant, so it increases your heart rate and meatbolism. being a diuretic, it causes your body to lose water, calcium, and other important fluids. also, tea makes it difficult for you body to absorb iron if you drink it before a meal. you can drink still caffine, just limit your intate a lot more than usual. no more than 300mg. a day.

Limit to 3 cups of instant coffee or 6 cups of tea.

since the beginning of my pregnancy., black tea made me feel better from my terrible morning sickness and nausea cz it has a bitter taste.. however i only had 1 or maximum 2 cups per day without any other caffeine source (coffee or soda).. im almost 29 weeks and still have my black tea once a day :) it wont harm the baby if u take it moderately and drink plenty of water during the day
