Caffeine Update: Pregnancy.

According to a new study that's just been released, pregnant women who consume over 200 mg of caffeine per day have TWICE the risk of miscarriage than women who consume no caffeine at all. Two hundred milligrams of caffeine is roughly the amount that's found in just two cups of coffee.

I just gave coffee up again. It's such an insidious social drug! Staff wanted a capucino machine in our new premises.. so who tested it out? Moi! And then who felt like one at the same time every day? Moi. And who got the effect of the down-end of my mood swings as a result? Cassie.

Is there a choice between a good woman and a good drug? No. The coffe had to go.
