1 AnswerPregnancy4 years agoLadies, if u drank very litle caffine duing pregnacy, would drinking more then u normally drink, but still within the limits, do harm?
I mean would it shock the fetus as long as u staybwithin the limited amount? I normally drink one or two cups of tea a day, which I just found out has very little caffine. A few days ago, I decided to have a drink thatvhas 95 mg of caffine, knowing it does not exede the daily limit. Many women have a cup of coffee a day and there babys are healthy, but there fetus was used to it. Is it worst to have thatvamount just once then if i had that same amount every day? Im in the second trimester.
