Half-caff coffee...

Is it bad that I am in the 2ww and have not given up caffeine completely?

I switched to half caff in the morning about 4 mos. ago - ?and I have only 1 large mug per day.

?

Do you guys think this is a mistake-- I'm kind of afraid to go cold turkey b/c I used to have a bigtime caff. addiction, where the withdrawal headaches were unbearable. ?I've weaned myself considerably since those days, but I do still need a little of it just to get my brain up & running every day. ?My Doc said not to worry about it, but I am just wondering what your RE's may have told you by comparison.

?

TIA,

K?

    My RE hasn't said anything about cutting it out, but I know I have to.  I've been actually drinking more coffee lately than normal!! I need to cut down big time but I am nervous - huge caffine addict.

    Try not to worry about it, while cutting it out is ideal, the research out there on caffeine & pregnancy is pretty limited and the general recommendation is 1 cup or less per day during pregnancy. You have to pick your battles, in my opinion, it is tough to completely change everything in your life overnight. GL!

    I am sure you are more than fine.

    After 2 rounds of IVF & 2 rounds of FET, we were blessed with identical twin girls!

    That should be fine. ?My RE has basically said not to worry about much until we get that + beta as long as I am generally eating healthily and drinking something OTHER than Coke and coffee all day so I can be sure I'm hydrated. ?

    I cut back (not out) on caffeine, but that was my own decision.?

    Yes, this IVF cycle I plan to cut back on caffeine but not cut it out completely like I did last time. I think you;ll be just fine and can just stop the caffeine once you get your BFP. Or not stop entirely....I think I would die if I had to go an entire 9 months without any Diet Pepsi ;)
