coffee lovers.

Hello mamas. So I work early mornings and need coffee to get my day started. I know they say caffeine is bad for baby. But how much coffee is too much coffee? I usually have 2 cups a day is that too much coffee? And what does too much caffeine do to baby?

My doctor told me I was completely fine drinking coffee. As long as I limited it to 2 cups a day. And I have a perfectly healthy baby and I drink coffee like 3 times a week.

If you are drinking a dark roast I would think 2 cups is fine because dark roasts have less caffeine than light roasts. Caffeine cause cause miscarriage but that is usually only a risk in the first trimester.

You're just supposed to stay under 150mg of caffeine a day
