Caffeine, Alcohol and the Grey Areas: What the Guidance Actually Says

One blanket statement follows you everywhere: no caffeine, no alcohol, for nine months. But the real guidance is messier. Different countries advise different limits. Some say a small coffee is fine; others say none at all. And the questions keep coming: Does decaf count? What if I had a glass of wine before I knew? What about chocolate? This book cuts through the conflicting headlines and tells you what the guidance actually says, where it comes from, and why it keeps changing. You'll learn what a real caffeine limit looks like in everyday cups, how to handle the wedding toast without panic, and what to do, not what to feel guilty about, if you've already had more than the book says. Written in a calm, judgment-free voice for anxious and exhausted parents, it gives you the scripts, the checklist and the confidence to make decisions you can live with, alongside your own midwife or doctor. No scare tactics, no shame, no invented rules. Just the straight answer. Part of The Pregnancy Companion Library.
