Coffee lovers?

Apologies if this has already been asked in a thread, I wasn't able to find it. I love a coffee in the morning and have continued to enjoy a cup a day... No other caffeine for the read of the day though. I had read that one cup is ok but then a friend had me second guessing yesterday as she said you shouldn't in the first trimester. Thoughts?

Re: Coffee lovers?

  • 1-2 cups per day is fine.

  • I love coffee but I haven't had any since finding out. DH has been doing reading and has asked me not to have any caffiene until after the first trimester so I'm going to try :)

    I remember the 1st trimester rule from my last pregnancy, but the latest school of thought is to keep it under 200mg a day.
    What she said - 200mg is 2 cups of coffee.

  • I have one cup a day and that's it. I'm sure it's fine.

  • Oh good! Thanks ladies for all your help and advice
  • I think I'm going to stick to the one cup a day as I've done a bit more reading and the 200mg a day seems to pop up a LOT
  • Remember chocolate had caffeine too!

    I was worried about the coffee situation - I'm an at least two mug a day kind of person. However the past few days I'm starting to develop an aversion and can't even finish one cup. Maybe this will happen for you too!

  • I think this is a completely personal decision. One to two cups is fine. I believe the suggested limit is 200mg. However, some people decide to stay away from it.
