A member asked:

Is drinking one or two cups of coffee going to harm the baby during my pregnancy?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No. : There is no evidence that a small amount of caffeine is harmful. Try to avoid during first trimester as there was a study suggesting excess caffeine in early pregnancy may increase the risk of miscarriage.
