if your dr says you can drink as much as you want then drink as much as you want. But with anything you should consume in moderation so maybe instead of drinking a whole pot you could drink 2-3 cups a day, especially if you add cream and or sugar to it. Water should be your main drink right now though.

you would have to drink 60 cups of decaf coffee to add up 300mg if 1 cup only has up to 5mg.

My Dr told me I can have as much as I want. I usually drink a pot a day. I did my research and read we are allowed up to 300mg of caffeine a day while pregnant. Some decafs could range anywhere around 3-5mg caffeine. Thoughts?
