caffiene intake??

[kayleeangel123]

I am 16weeks pregnant and I usually have I cup of coffee in the morning and 1 cup of tea in the evening, I do have the odd can/bottle of coke once or twice a week too. Just lately all I crave is coke, I feel it really gives me a boost I need. From what I have told you, does it seem ok what my intake is so far? Can I increase to more caffeine or not as I am not aware of exact quantitys ?  Xx

My Dr told me to limit mine caffeine intake to twice a day.

But everyone's situation is different. If you think it's too much, call your Dr.

I was always told 200 mg. I'd just take a look at what your current intake is and see what the extras add up too. I usually drink a cup of coffee. But the half decaf kind. And usually a pop a day. I also craved a lot of soda. I just try to offset it with a lot water intake. I'm now 31 weeks and baby boy is still healthy.
