Pregnant Girl Problems

dottieeemcnaughtyy-deactivated2 Asked: My doctor also told me caffeine can dehydrate your muscles and lead to uterine cramping, just to add to your last post :) She didn't say the cramping could cause anything, just that it can be scary if you don't know why you're cramping.

That’s a good point, too!! Any kind of caffeine can cause dehydration, and dehydration can cause increased Braxton Hicks contractions, or even preterm labor (in extreme cases). So if you’re going to be drinking caffeine, make sure you drink lots of water! (Which you should be doing anyways).
