Finally pregnant! But, oh dear, that is about that the morning coffee is banned from now?

Coffee junkies can breathe easy: Fortunately, this is only a myth. Coffee is not forbidden during pregnancy, But: Coffee lovers should reduce their consumption significantly. The problem: The image taken by the expectant mum with the coffee caffeine enters the bloodstream of unborn babies. However, unlike us adults lack the embryo enzymes to break down the caffeine.

What does this mean for the unborn baby is still controversial in science. So there have been studies that have demonstrated an increased number of miscarriages, reduced body weight at birth or sleep problems of children, if the expectant mom has been drinking a lot of coffee during pregnancy.

But recent studies give the all clear. A bit of coffee during pregnancy is okay. A moderate caffeine consumption does not harm the baby, said among other things the scientists to Ina Santos of the Federal University of Pelotas, Brazil. The World Health Organization (WHO) allows expectant mothers because of 300 milligrams of caffeine a day. These are one to two cups of coffee, four mugs of black tea or a liter of cola.

By the way, coffee is not only an issue in pregnancy. Mothers who breastfeed should be even with the coffee and then not more than one or two cups a day to drink. Especially babies born too early process the caffeine more slowly and react for example with sleep problems on it.

These foods can harm the unborn baby: Wine, some kind of cheese, rissole, pastrami, hamburger, ice cream.
