Can you have green tea or other teas while pregnant that have some caffiene?
 
Yeah in moderation. I just have normal tea, but I also have decaf for when I want more than one cup a day x
 
I've been drinking between 4-5 cups of tea a day but I don't have any other drinks with caffeine in. However, have been guzzling chocolate so reduced my tea drinking to compensate!
 
yes you can but some teas, like green tea and chamomile can cause uterine contractions but they are safe
 
Cool. I used to be a coffee drinker but have an occasional decaf while pregant and even that seems to spark baby up. I had a green tea yesterday and today, but then thought, ooops-don't know if I can have that.
 
My doctor said green tea could deplete folic acid levels in the body but drinking it in moderation is ok (no more than 3 cups per day). Try not to drink it the same time you take your prenatal vitamin. Or just eat extra spinach that day. lol
