Caffeine During Pregnancy…?

Q: Has anyone drank caffeine their entire pregnancy and delivered happy, healthy babies? I asked my doctor why i’m only allowed two cups of coffee a day and he said “it can cause miscarriage early in pregnancy, and could cause low birth weight”. I quit smoking, and drinking caffeine in the first trimester, but I re-introduced caffeine in the second (lol I need it! and I don’t plan on picking tobacco back up!) But I don’t see HOW bad it can be? A doctor that I saw before I settled on my new dr. said “I’d rather you didn’t drink coffee at all. If you need caffeine, have a cup of non-herbal tea.” I’m not looking for an excuse to drink it.. I just want to know how bad is it, really? My ultrasound looked “fantastic” and i’ve had no problems. Any thoughts?Wow! Great answers! Thank you all very much. I should’ve mentioned that I do drink 3+ liters of water a day (i’m a sloshy mess!) because I know coffee is a diuretic..so that helps! Thanks again ladies, you’re all so helpful 🙂

A: I’m not sure. Everyone I know has had caffeine during pregnancy and had perfectly fine healthy babies with normal birth weights. My doctor told me I can have 2 caffienated drinks a day, and I usually do as I am a caffiene addict. Sometimes a little more but shhh.. and so far everything looks perfect. I’m not going to tempt anything by drinking a lot more than suggested by my doctor, but I’m too addicted to not drink it at all. Congrats and good luck!!

have you ever suffered a miscarriage & do you happen to smoke?

Q: I think smoking has a lot to do with miscarriage. Either parent who smokes can affect the developing feotus and lead to a miscarriage.I realise fully that perfectly healthy non smokers suffer this too, but just curious to know how many LIKE ME, have suffered a miscarriage and are smokers.I have since quit. I firmly believe smoking caused my miscarriage. Not during he pregnancy but before it. The egg or sperm quality was affected….ThanksMRS*K. So sorry for your loss. Me too , April 26th. I would be 4 weeks away from the birth now. I am nowhere near over it, just have to “live with it”. Hate it.xx

A: I do not smoke and never have. My partner does, but never around me.We lost our pregnancy to a parcial molar.But a friend of his smoked as normal in her pregnancy and lost it at 10 weeks. I dont know if it caused it, but i would have thought it would contribute.

Girls will you please do research on periods during pregnancy.?

Q: Please take some time to yourself to do some research on this subject. you CANNOT have a period and be PREGNANT!!!Question: Can you be pregnant and still get your period?Answer: Well, no, you can’t get your period once you’re pregnant — once your body starts producing the hormone human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) and your pregnancy is established, your menstrual cycle is interrupted and normal periods stop. But you may have bleeding or spotting during pregnancy that can seem like a period.Some pregnant women have what’s called “implantation bleeding” that can happen around the time their period is due, and they may mistake that bleeding for a period. This spotting may be caused by the fertilized egg burrowing into the blood-rich lining of the uterus, a process that starts just 6 days after fertilization, and it’s generally a lot lighter than a typical period — just a day or two of very light spotting.If you’re pregnant and you’re not sure when your last period started, this can make establishing a due date difficult for your healthcare provider. If you have any doubts, your provider can feel how big your uterus is with a pelvic examination and estimate how far along you are. In most cases, your provider will also order an ultrasound before the middle of your pregnancy to measure the size of your developing baby and clarify exactly when the baby is due.Many women who bleed a little bit in early pregnancy deliver without any complications, but bleeding can also be a cause for concern. It may be the first sign of a miscarriage. If so, your symptoms probably will go on to include heavy cramping and bleeding much heavier than a normal period.Abnormal bleeding can also be a sign of ectopic or tubal pregnancy. If you have sharp pains in your lower abdomen, especially if the pain is only on one side, you should see your practitioner right way to find out if you have an ectopic pregnancy. A tubal pregnancy can be life-threatening, and sometimes the only symptom is bleeding around the time your period is expected. Often, the period may be lighter than usual. Sometimes a home pregnancy test will be negative, and the pregnancy can only be detected by checking blood hCG levels.If you bleed at all early in your pregnancy, it’s best to notify your doctor or midwife to get specific instructions. She may suggest getting a blood test to check your hCG levels or order an ultrasound to evaluate your condition more thoroughly.

A: This is one of those topics that there is never going to be a total agreement on, like abortion. There will always be the ones who say yes you can and those of us who say no you can’t.There has been massive research conducted on this issue and all research has pointed to the fact that someone cannot have their period and be pregnant. I cannot say either way, but I do listen to the scientifics of the matter and I would be inclined to agree with you. This was even taught in my parenting classes.It is also told that when the fertilized egg reaches the uterus it burrows into the wall of the uterus. If someone was to have a true period and be pregnant, the egg would be flushed out with the uterine lining. That makes sense to me.But I am not scientist, I can say that I never had the confusion with my pregnancy. I had no bleeding at all.
