I've heard some conflicting things about cinnamon--- am I able to have cinnamon? There is an old wives tale saying it will cause you to possibly lose the baby. I'm terrified of that so I've been staying away from it. But is it true??
Also, in my previous life (not pregnant) I was a tea & coffee drinker. I have given up all caffinated drinks but still crave my peppermint tea (decaffinated), am I okay to drink that? I've heard that herbal teas may not be good for me...
Please help this clueless & concerned mom-to-be
Re: Cinnamon & Peppermint Tea
I don't know about cinnamon but my OB said peppermint tea is ok. It is naturally caffeine free and does wonders for m/s.

This. Try it chilled and it makes a world of difference for the m/s.
I have not heard anything about cinnamon, but if it was dangerous I am sure my doctor would have said something to me. Here is link about herbal teas and pregnancy. Peppermint tea is fine and it is great for m/s.
