two questions!

My first is I have a breast feeding class coming up and I was wondering if it was weird that I wanted my husband there with me? Do men go to breath feeding classes?

And my second question is it true that I can't drink coffee? I'm 21 weeks, and I haven't had any but I've been craving one sooo bad!

It's fine to drink coffee in moderation. We drink 1/2 caff in the morning. I usually only have one cup of it. One cup of regular coffee a day is under the recommended level of 300mg.

I took a 5 week class on breastfeeding thru the local WIC office here and there were guys in it. But they show some videos and there are ta-tas in it but its not like your husband hasnt seen those before right?!? :)

Thank you both of you! I've been wanting a vanilla iced coffee so bad. Ahah, and I wasn't sure about the breast feeding class but im glad it wont be weird if he goes with me, my mom tried telling me men dont go to those so I was confused.

Your fine to drink coffee as long as you dont drink alot of it or all the time. Ive been craving coffee myself, but only a mocha frappe. Lol

No its not weird for your husband to go with you. There were a couple guys in the breastfeeding class I took. And they learn a lot too and honestly have tons of questions and some that women wouldn't even think of so I think its perfectly fine for him to go.

As for coffee I drink it a few times a week. And yes its caffeinated. Some caffeine during pregnancy is fine as long as you dont overdue it. Just ask your dr what the limit is but i think my dr said lik e200mg a day or something of caffeine which plain coffee has like 80 i think in a cup or something like that. So you should be fine to have coffee.
