coffee question

Hi everyone,

Im almost 19 weeks pregnant and the smell of coffee is really getting to me!
But I mean in a good way, lol. I just want it! I was never a big coffee
drinker, I always hated it. But now, its a must! Or so it seems.
Does anyone know if drinking decaf is bad for mom/baby?

Hi, Sara! My OB said that decaf was fine and up to one cup of regular a
day was also fine. Hope that settles your mind! I've been drinking
decaf, 1 cup a day, and have avoided caffeine.

I gave in and had a cup of coffee last week, it was SOOOOO GOOOD. I figure
one cup in 5 months would'nt be too bad. The baby didn't go mad. Once when I
was about 7 months with my son, I drank a Coke and he practically started
doing backflips!

I've had no desire for coffee in the past few weeks. I've switched to tea.

I can smell coffee at 50 yds. I think coffee drinking should be banned in
public places, and at MIL's house (who practically chain drinks it) ;-P
Anyone else drinking coffee is definitely bad for me anyway... cola on the
other hand is my caffeine addiction.

Drinking decaf is fine so long as you are drinking water too.
That is how my doctor put it to me. He also said that a cup or 2
of the fully loaded stuff a day is fine -- again, so long as you
are drinking water.

Hope
you find a good brand of decaf!

If you can get it in your country, Moccona is the absolute best
brand of decaf. I am a coffee drinker. I love a good cup of
coffee. I drink instant and real coffee. Moccona tastes like
fully loaded coffee. Some decaf taste like coffee flavored water
-- yuck!! Moccona doesn't.

Here is their webpage: http://www.moccona.com.au/internet/

Disclaimer: I don't work for Moccona, but I LOVE their decaf!

Some teas have more caffeine than coffee. Beware.

Tea has more caffeine than coffee *per pound*, but you use so much less tea
*per cup* that each cup usually has much less caffeine than the same volume of
brewed coffee.
