can i have half caffeine coffee??
i started mixing my coffee in the AM...instead of using 4 scoops of regular, i have been doing 2 scoops regular and 2 scoops decaf. Is that okay??? I use a typical sized travel mug...i think it's between 16-20oz.
on weekends i usually just drink a regular mug of coffee. is it ok to do the half and half for a reg. mug???
i think i am 4W2days, not sure if that matters

You can have some caffiene in your diet. I do the half caff - half decaf thing for a 12 ounce. I think what you are doing is fine, but if you are unsure check with the doctor.

I did half caf half decaf in a typical travel mug as well. I drank that the whole first trimester but for some reason my body hasn't wanted coffee lately

I did the same thing. Folgers actually makes a 1/2 caff - 1/2 decaf, so I get that when I see it. Then I put it in the empty full caffeinated can so DH doesn't know.

you can call your doctors office to see how much they recommend... some doctors dont want any caffeine, others allow upto 3- 8oz cups

While caffeine in moderation is usually fine - some doctors don't want you to have caffeine in your 1st trimester b.c it can increase your risk of miscarriage. While it is probably fine I would ask your OB.
