So i have been drinking tea, i know you shouldnt but i love tea. I recently stopped last week and i am 4 months. well this harm my baby?? Im so worried!
What kind of tea? Just regular black tea? Are you worried about the caffeine? brewed tea doesnt have as much.caffeine as coffee and actually around 200 mg of caffeine a day is perfectly fine I think tea only has like 40 or 50 mg depending how strong u make it. But its fine no worries I have a cup of tea every morning
@eaparker, my ob said, no sweet tea or anything caffinated. sweet absorbs iron and your baby need iron. This may cause delay in baby growth too. I think i'll just stop, better to be safe then sorry.
Mine said to stay under 200mg caffeine and my iron levels r fine and baby is growing fine. Guess its one of those things that's different with each person.
Ooh ya my ob said its totally fine to have tea Just use moderation. Ive heard of some other types of herbal teas that arent good not sure what they are. But my ob even suggested chamomile.tea to help with nausea and.constipatio. I would just give your ob a call if your worried....now im crraving some lemon iced tea! To bad its snowing where I am!
