Pregnant women who drink two or more cups of coffee a day have twice the risk of having a miscarriage as those who avoid caffeine, U.S. researchers said on Monday. They said the study provides strong evidence that high doses of caffeine during pregnancy -- 200 milligrams or more per day or the equivalent of two cups of coffee -- significantly increase the risk of miscarriage, according to a study that appears in the American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology.
Bonnie - this is not surprising news. I have always suggested to my clients for fertility and pregnancy to keep it under 200 mg. (two cups daily).
