Boy I'm glad I'm not a coffee drinker! I can only imagine the "withdrawals"! My friend is also pregnant as well, and she has to have 3-5 coffee a day. She tried cutting back cold turkey and it gave her issues and she COULD not have the energy to go to work or whatever. So her doc gave her the okay to have the limit of 2. She has 1 in the morning, then 1 with 1/2 caffeine and 1/2 decaf in the afternoon/evening.
I'm a tea drinker. Luckily, prior I used to be a heavy Lipton tea drinker, however, I've converted to PG Tips (England imported). And I limit myself to one big mug a day (2 cups), which has 40 mg of caffeine per cup, so that's pretty low and way under the recommended limit.
I would love to try the other tea listed above!
Funny thing is: When my mom was pregnant with my brother (she didn't know for a couple months, and he was not planned), she drank coffee and smoked. After finding out she was indeed pregnant, she stopped smoking, but continued to drink coffee. My brother smokes and is a coffee drinker. He also likes booze.
I was a planned baby, and Mom quit smoking and stopped drinking coffee for a while prior I was conceived, and she just drank tea to "make up" for caffeine during pregnancy. Well, I hate coffee, I cannot stand smoking, and I hate booze. Go figure eh?
