If it has caffenie, yes. You should not drink more that 300 mg a day because this increases your miscarriage/preterm labor risk. Also, I dont know about powder, my certain tea has herbs that can trigger labor and other symptoms. Look for boxed ';pregnancy tea'; in the grocery store.I Drink lipton powder ice tea everyday is this bad for my unborn baby?
Depends on how much your drinking, alot of sites I've seen are now saying it's ok to drink up to 2 cups of coffee a day, so as long as your not drinking more than the equivalent (I'd guess you shouldn't drink more than 2-3 cups of the tea) then you should be ok.





That tea does come in decaf so next time you go buy some you may want to consider getting that instead. I never noticed any difference in the taste but you could end up with a headache from caffeine withdrawal for a few days.
i too was drinking tea everyday until one day i had to go to the hospital and they told me that i was dehydrated and tea was the only thing i was drinking. i know you don't like water but please do drink it for the baby and try decaffeinated tea instead of regular
I think its fine. Obviously you don't want to drink a pot of coffee a day, pregnant or not pregnant, but I think a glass of iced tea will not hurt your baby.
It is tea so yes there is caffeine in it. If you want the caffeinated kind limit yourself to 3 glasses a day or get the kind without caffeine. Too much caffeine can cause low birth weight.
try drinking the decaffeinated tea its much better for the baby then regular tea Regular tea has alot a caffeine in it its just as bad as drinking a soda
I drank ICE TEA ALL DAY EVERYDAY, prepregnancy but I cut back. Caffeine and sugars are the problem!


You really need to limit yourself to 1-2 drinks a day with caffeine.
