No: Many women have a concern that caffeinated drinks such as coffee may increase the risk of miscarriage. Most studies show that one cup of coffee daily does not have any adverse effect on the risk of miscarriage. But women who have multiple miscarriages should consult with their physician for more specific advice.

No: Lots of contradictory studies lead the evening news, but the take-home message is this: moderate intake (2 or so) of caffeine has not been implicated in increased risk of miscarriage. The second take-home message? Common sense and moderation in all things...

No: Coffee does not lead to miscarriages. Caffeine is a stimulant and cause raise blood pressure. All artificial stimulants including cocaine, amphetamines should be avoided.
