Accepted Answer

Green tea: Green tea is generally very safe &amp; has positive effects on health. If you drink five or more cups of caffeinated green tea it can cause an increase in blood pressure for some people, as well as gastrointestinal upset  (nausea or vomiting), irritability or insomnia.  Recommend decaffeinated green tea if pregnant.

Question 4

Not relevant : There is no reason to increase consumption of these two drinks. Just eat a healthy balanced diet. Milk and juice can be a part of that. They also have a lot of calories and can lead to weight gain.

Question 7

does drinking during the first month of a pregnancy greatly affect the baby?

Accepted Answer

No clear answer: The original fetal alcohol syndrome cases were found in alcoholic women, many of whom died within a year of giving birth to alcohol related issues.We know alcohol breaks down to formaldehyde & that interferes with fetal development. Affects seem to be dose & time sensitive. As long as you've stopped exposing baby you've done what you can. The effect if any is likely to be minimal.

Question 8

Accepted Answer

No: The biggest concern with alcohol in early pregnancy is fetal alcohol syndrome.

You should talk to your doctor if you have concerns but the odds are in your favor.
