I have heard that fake sugars - am guessing this is what stevia is? Sways girl, but tea is GREAT for boys!
I am having green tea =)

Cemas, Stevia is the good one for ph... the only sugar that is alkalizing. I think that is fine, and I still drink half and half in my coffee....I don't think it is bad to have some milk (I am not convinced that full-fat dairy is good for fertility). I know Atomic drank lots of tea and had a lot of dairy as well.....

Yes, stevia is the only good fake sugar for blue.

I drank TONS of tea with all four of my boys. That is the one constant between them all LOL.

Non-dairy creamer is fine if you're avoiding dairy, although full fat dairy does boost fertility if you're not as sold on the idea of avoiding calcium.

I drank tea every morning when I was swaying for DS. This time around I added Stevia/Truvia to me Tea every morning.

Oops, I meant to say that I DO think full fat dairy is good for fertility, hence the half and half! I still do coffee, though, I can't deal without a cup.

It's like "Coffeemate" - a powder that makes your coffee creamy even though you can keep it safely on a shelf. It's made out of all kinds of chemicals and has no calcium/odium

I drank between 2-4 bags (meaning cups made from bags) of good old regular tea or else occasionally Earl Gray, every day with all four of my boys with milk and sometimes sugar. With DS 3 I also drank Lipton green tea 1 or 2 a day.

I think thats fine Cemas. My DH is a tea drinker. While I had green tea, I gave him the regular T with non dairy creamer and stevia. He thought it tasted gross though...lol
