I would not worry too much about passing this on to your babe. Allergies do tend to be worse during pregnancy. Drinking plenty of water, taking vitamin C, and getting plenty of rest is the best thing...

Some women do switch to decaf, which is alright. However, in all honesty, it takes a lot of chemical disruption to turn regular coffee into decaf. Drinking a cup or two of your regular brew is fine,...
