Can I still drink coffee now that I'm pregnant?

Yes you can, but to a certain limit. High consumption of caffeine which is also found in chocolate, soft drinks and teas may increase your risks of having a low birth-weight baby or miscarriage.

So, make sure to follow the recommendations of the National Health Services in UK and do not consume more than 200 mg of caffeine per day.

We also have advice on healthy eating during pregnancy and what foods to avoid.
