Is 3 coffees a day too much whilst BF

[Babushka]

Just wondering what people's opinions are on caffeine whilst BF?

If it doesn't seem to affect your LO then I wouldn't worry about it, personally. I'm pretty lax about caffeine in general, though. I think I had my max 300mg/day every day when I was pregnant.

I don't drink coffee, but I drink tea like its going out of style! It doesn't seem to affect my LO!

I have probably 2 cups of tea and 2 coffees (instant) per day and I haven't noticed it affecting my LO. I would probably not have 3 strong espresso coffees a day myself but if you're talking instant or similar it should be OK.

I drink 2-3 caffeinated coffee's a day but if I want anymore than that I switch to de-caf. My lo was really windy when newborn though and still has un-settled nights if I over do the coffee's, so I try to limit what I have. It's hard too, because I used to drink a lot of coffee.
