Coffee while TTC - did you? Do you? Do you think it matters?

[Glamourcide]

I never drank coffee before I had DD1 (the sleep deprivation nearly killed me, I soon realised the only way to get through those 3-hourly wakeup was COFFEEEEEE), but I gave up when TTCing DD2 because I was drinking lots of coffee when I had an early m/c not long after DD1 was born. In all honesty, I don't think the coffee was the deciding factor in my miscarriage, I was under a lot of stress and probably not fully recovered from giving birth so I don't think bub would have stuck regardless of how much caffeine I was consuming, but I had read a bit about caffeine being linked to miscarriage so when we decided to TTC again I stopped drinking it. I think it's an individual choice, a risk we all calculate according to our individual situation, itms. Best of luck!!

Thanks for eveyones imput! I do have decaffe in the house and I try and drink it when I can if i just want the taste. Im the mornings I have been having a cup of tea but on work mornings I really like my real coffee - my reward for going to work i guess! LOL
I have scaled down my coke so I am being alot wiser and more consious now that we are TTC, but I do like a real coffee!
I prefer tea in the the arvos now for some reason..

Thanks again for all your advice!'
