cinnamon tea

[michellemares]

Is it ok to drink cinnamon tea? I'm 34w 2d I'm asking because they usually say to stay away from teas but honestly I've been craving it sooo bad.

Cinnamon, a fragrant spice with a reputation as an aid to gastrointestinal upset, makes a tea that many pregnant women enjoy. Cinnamon tea is safe in pregnancy when taken in normal amounts, according to the American Pregnancy Association, but do not take cinnamon bark supplements without your medical practitioner's approval. Plus I also read it helps to lower ur blood pressure but yeah just don't drink it as often or ask ur dr.. This is what I read online good luck and btw I use to brew the sticks too and use to drink it all the time till someone told me not  drink it as much Cus it can cause me an allergie and can be harmful but I truly don't know..

Thank you ladies=) I can drink my tea in peace now lol I live in colorado so this well help me keep warm up and since I don't like coffee this will do just fine=)

I have never boiled the sticks so I'm not sure about that but I am referring to all the other teas you purchase off the shelves or leaf form which may contain caffeine.

Sorry...for example...black tea

Nope that sounds delightful!

[michellemares]

What do you mean by caffeinated cause I just boil the sticks in hot water is that bad?

[michellemares]

Well I haven't drank any tea throughout my pregnancy and lately I've been craving it with honey. Thanks for your response tho.

You can have caffeinated teas as well just try to keep your caffeine intake to 200mg or less per day.  Happy Drinking!
