coffee question

Any body else still having coffee? Iv had  4 Oz cup to 8 Oz couple times a week. Iv noticed that's it's helped with the minimal swelling/water rention  when it happens usually the next day after Iv had a day of not drinking any. I still drink my 4 liters of water a day. I noticed the swelling changes after this weekend and monday I didn't have any coffee and on Tuesday I had some noticeable swelling on my ankles mostly and after I had some of course I went pee a lot but by the end of the day no swelling and this morning  none I also had another teacup  of it.mines no sugar  just coffee and milk. My Dr's known I drink it since the begining. But just wondering if any of you still got your coffee fix?

I do a cup a day or a pop.  I was cutting it all out and ended super sick from withdrawal and my Dr scolded me for stressing my body out lol.

My doctor knew I was a casual coffee drinker from the start and never had any issues with it. I find that I'm more sensitive to caffeine now and can't drink as much as I used to anyway.  You can't give up EVERYTHING!

I have an 8oz cup usually every day,  I asked my doc and he said that she is growing perfectly fine and there's nothing wrong w a cup of coffee a day. There are always recommendations but each person and pregnancy is different & babies react and metabolize differently. I'm 35+5 wks and my baby girl is good to go! :)
