Atomic, I have a q: why we should stop Green tea in 2WW ( or it was once we get BFP ) Is it because of spina bifida?

My sister was drinking Green Tea before getting pg ( she wasn't swaying, she drank it for its health benefits) and kept drinking it throughout the whole pregnancy and of course took FA but only 400mcg daily and she had healthy baby boy ( she always wanted a daughter btw )

Do you think 1 cup daily maybe safe? I know my sister's experience doesn't have universal significance lol!

TTC 5, I've googled a bit and it seems 1cup of green tea provides 10-50 mg of polyphenols and other benefit substances and I've found Green Tea tablets online with maximum dosage of 500mg. So I have no idea are that high dosage like your tbl safe?

I think it's because of the caffeine and also because of the folic acid link.

I do think 1 cup a day is probably safe in most instances, but since there IS a link to the folic acid-green tea, I am just very wary of telling people to continue it during pregnancy.

Boy I don't know about those ones. I don't like the big "do not take during pregnancy" warning on them. Is that a commonly available brand in Aus??
