milk tea on first trimester?

Milk tea should be fine during pregnancy, but the main thing to watch is the caffeine content since it's higher in the first trimester. A few of my mum friends cut back on their usual milk tea intake during early pregnancy and just had it occasionally instead of daily, mainly because they wanted to be cautious about caffeine limits. Since you're only at week 9, might be good to check with your gynae or PD about how much caffeine is safe for you specifically, and they can give you a clearer guideline for your whole pregnancy. Most of us found that knowing the actual caffeine amount in our favourite drinks helped us make the choice easier.

17:33 Haha this question very relatable because I also was craving milk tea so badly during my first trimester! The main concern is the caffeine content lah, during first trimester doctors usually advise to keep caffeine below 200mg per day, and milk tea like Chagee can have quite a bit of caffeine depending on which drink you order. So if you really cannot tahan the craving, maybe order once in a while only and choose lower caffeine options like the fruit teas or ask for less tea base, and avoid the full caffeine ones like dirty matcha or strong black tea based drinks, and of course check with your gynae if you are unsure!
