Do you carry on drinking coffee during the TWW? I drink Americano's so have my coffee pretty strong.
Is this safe? I wondered could it interfere with implantation or anything like that?

It's safe in moderate amounts. Multiple studies and official recommendations found up to 200-300 mg of caffeine is fine in pregnancy.
That said, me suddenly having an aversion to coffee during the TWW was my first sign something was up, so I haven't had coffee in... 38 weeks :giggle:

Thanks Throwawaypanther, it's more the implantation part I'm concerned about, didn't know if it could shake up that process or if I'm overthinking lol x

Following bc I'm wondering this myself. I'm drinking a lot of coffee each day so I'm wondering if I should stop or at least cut back if I suspect a successful attempt.
I drink a ton of coffee and didn't cut back at all during my 2ww and got a positive on a digi at 7 dpo! Still have my cup every morning just not 3 a day lol
If coffee could prevent implantation the human race would have died out long ago. It is fine.Quote:

If anything alcohol may even help implantation by thinning blood. But that having been said, of course alcohol at any point during pregnancy is highly controversial - while I believe and the data seems to support that mod. alcohol intake is ok in very early pregnancy because baby is not even implanted yet, and birth defects do not seem to occur till later on than that even, it is still a chance that many people would not be willing to take. So please folow your gut and heart on that.
Yup, echoing atomic on both coffee and alcohol! You might have some people who poo poo coffee even as early as the 2WW, but the science doesn't support this.
Similarly, the science (despite some more scaremongering articles lately) says alcohol during the implantation period also doesn't affect it. SEVERE amounts of alcohol (like being blitzed out drunk) can potentially affect implantation by either a.) preventing it or b.) damaging the egg, but moderate amounts has no impact whatsoever. And this has been echoed to me by doctors and midwives as well.
