Hello everyone!
I've panicked myself slightly! I'm currently 30 weeks pregnant and have had a busy day today.
I've just calculated in my head what I've eaten/drank and I've Feinstein gone over the 200mg caffeine intake :(
Today I've had- 2 cups tea
A penguin choc bar
A whole Easter egg
A can of coke
How much over would you say this is?
I feel awful! I didn't think when I had that second cup of tea. The Easter egg was a small sainsburies own one.
I've stupidly googled caffeine intake and pregnancy !
Please tell me I'm not the only one Confused

I've had 3 children I'm pregnant now and this is the first pregnancy I've had decaf tea! They were fine and I just drank tea as I have done since I was a kid (love tea me!). They are 11,8,6 they weighed 7lbs3, 6 1bs10, and 7lbs so not big babies but not tiny. I shall see if this is a whopper!
So what I is saying is I wouldn't worry unless you are having 6 cups of Americano a day I'm sure you will be fine SmileSmile

Oh yes!!!

I tried decaf real coffee and it was flipping awful!

I have had 3 real lattes today and they were very nice. Do I feel guilty? No!!!

I have given up everything else so I feel I shouldn't feel guilty about not giving up this.

Today was an exception though, I usually only allow myself one weak latte in the morning.

God, all the time, I don't even count chocolate, just tea and coffee. Didn't even paeticularly start counting THAT until 20+ weeks Blush
