Avatar n tn I am 24 weeks pregnant tomorrow with baby #3 and the sleepless nights are starting to kick in. I really want, and need some coffee but I am nervous to drink it while pregnant. I know having a little caffeine is not bad and I have a soda every now and then but I've never had caffeinated coffee during any of my pregnancies. What do y'all think?
Avatar f tn It sounds like you're having digestion problems. The most problematic of the foods you mention generally are first, the milk, second, the sugar, and third the coffee. But it's hard to say since diet is very complicated, and you don't say how soon after eating you laid down. Chamomile is a good stomach relaxant and anti-inflammatory, perhaps try some of that instead of the coffee, milk, and sugar and see how you do, assuming you don't need the coffee to stay awake.
Avatar f tn Your fine to drink coffee as long as you dont drink alot of it or all the time. Ive been craving coffee myself, but only a mocha frappe.
Avatar m tn Another reason I feel that it is not a problem is due to the health advantages that coffee has, according to many health studies and reports (assuming this is not just propaganda). I have found that whether or not I drink coffee, the symptoms remain. Another bit of history that I have not revealed is that I am a Gulf War veteran and was in Saudi Arabia / Kuwait / Iraq throughout a one year period.
Avatar f tn ve been trying to eat healthy and I have shrimp salads or chicken salads for dinner, breakfast is usually kix cereal or honey nut cherios with a banana and coffee. For lunch just have a sandwich on a healthy bread and use mustard instead of mayo. For snacks I enjoy fruit , pretzels, yogurt, rice cakes, or carrots. There's a great website called myfitnesspal.com it has been helping me out alot! Goodluck and I hope this helped!

Avatar m tn I have chronic gastritis -- but my real problem is severe acid reflux & i've done an endscopy & my cardia was competent !!! knowing that i'm following a low fat diet - non smoker - non alcoholic : my questions are: 1. what is the reason for this severe acid reflux ? 2. can i take one or two cold cup of coffee per day or it will harm my esophagus knowing that coffee doesn't affect my stomach gastritis ?
Avatar f tn It is great that you are looking out for your own health and the baby. There are different studies about coffee drinking while pregnant. It is still recommended not to drink caffeine drinks: coffee, teas, sodas (Coke, Pepsi, Mountain Dew to name a few). Decaf drinks do have a minimal amount of caffeine, however, they are safer to drink. Suggest increasing your consummation of water, which is a healthy benefit. Thank you for your question.
Avatar n tn for the pass 2 years they almost are all gone i gave up drinking certain brands of decaff coffee, junk food if anyone wants to ask me questions about them feel free to e mail me ***@****
Avatar f tn Can I drink coffee being pregnant? I looked online and got conflicting results saying it was okay. But others said dont even think about it. It would be caffanated coffee. Obviously I don't want to hurt my baby but pumpkin spice coffee is calling my name.
Avatar f tn I also read that it takes longer for the caffeine to get out your system .. What can coffee cause your baby to have ? Or any health issues ?
755829 tn?1246919225 I recommend cutting out all coffee. But if you must drink coffee then yes, I would say that decaff is better than regular coffee. Decaff contains little to no caffeine while regular coffee contains high amounts of caffeine. Caffeine can cause MANY problems. I would name them all but it would take me a very long time. Look at this website for further information on caffeine and the side effects it has. Some you have probably already had and didn't even notice.
Avatar m tn You have been offered a wonderful gift from a health professional, and I suggest you take advantage of his offer, Snooze. Thanks Doc, for your kindness.
Avatar f tn Biggest thing is diet i had heart burn food coming up for few years,stop drinking coffee,soda and tomato based food,also eat lean meats smaller meals try nexium or prevacid with diet it solved my issue,hope this helps.
Avatar f tn A fatal dose of caffeine would be 10 grams of coffee or about 80 cups of coffee all at once. While you are not likely drinking anywhere near a fatal dose, you are probably experiencing some serious consequences from your heavy intake of caffeine. Are you addicted to the caffeine?
Avatar n tn ve been around chronic halatosis people, some inherited it some had diabetes, etc. Others have stinky yawns and breath coming out of their throats from coffee. if it's new to u ask others if they've noticed before you.
Avatar f tn I would limit coffee to a cup a day. Consider yourself lucky with having no symptoms but the sore breasts. Flutters it all depends, some feel them as early as twelve weeks, some later, some not at all.
Avatar m tn NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - Coffee, tea, or decaf-no matter what your choice, drinking any of these beverages may reduce your risk of diabetes, according to a new analysis of 18 studies including hundreds of thousands of people. Health A 2005 research review concluded that people who drank the most coffee were one-third less likely to develop diabetes than those who drank the least, Dr. Rachel Huxley of The University of Sydney, Australia, and colleagues note.
