Over thirty years ago, when I was pregnant with my first son, there were dire warnings for pregnant women to avoid caffeine. Coffee was particularly a "no no." I was told my children could be born with multiple sets of fingers if I indulged in caffeinated beverages, particularly coffee.
Well, being a good earth mother, I wasn't going to chance that, so I dutifully drank decaf. Yikes! A few years later, caffeine and coffee were vindicated and the process used to decaf coffee was suspect. What's a good mother-to-be to do?
