Pregnant Women Given OK to Drink A Coffee A Day

Pregnant women need no longer give up their morning cup of coffee. A research review by The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists had found that moderate caffeine consmption probably won’t increase the risk of a miscarriage or premature
birth.

Until recently, studies have had conflicting findings about the effect of moderate caffeine consumption on pregnancy complications but a College committee has reviewed the evidence.

“I think it’s time to comfortably say that it’s OK to have a cup of coffee during pregnancy,” Dr. William Barth, the chair of the College committee, told Reuters Health.
