Too much caffeine during pregnancy may increase the risk of miscarriage

pregnant women may want to reduce their intake or cut it out entirely.

pregnant women who consume 200 milligrams or more of caffeine a day — the amount in 10 ounces of coffee or 25 ounces of tea — may double their risk of miscarriage.

Pregnant women should try to give up caffeine for at least the first three or four months

“If, for whatever reason, they really can’t do it, think of cutting to one cup or switching to decaf,”

Until more is known, women should limit their caffeine intake during pregnancy.

Women who have morning sickness are less likely to miscarry than those who do not, possibly because the same hormonal changes that cause nausea and vomiting contribute to a healthy pregnancy.

smoking, chlamidial infections and increasing maternal age were stronger risk factors for miscarriage

“Moderation in all things is still an excellent rule,”
