My Philippine born husband often used to roll his eyes in exasperation at the amount of tea that I, as a (British heritage) Australian, would drink. As soon as we started TTC I switched to decaf tea – which suited me fine, wasn’t quite as strong and not as delicious, but I was happy nonetheless.
Now the thought of a cup of tea makes me fell completely ill.
What is the world coming to?!

Funny, I had some friends here from London recently that drove me CRAZY with the tea drinking!
I'm sorry to hear it's making you woozy -- have you tried a different flavor? I don't usually partake in tea but if there's peppermint tea around I might indulge.
Hope you find a good substitute if not.

Firstly I just want to say be very careful what tea you drink when pg. Peppermint and Raspberry Leaf tea are linked to m/c. Raspberry tea is actually used in the last couple of months before giving birth to help' bring on labor'.
Its the peppermint oil that is linked to m/c. While some peppermint teas are fine there is no way of knowing the strength of the peppermint in each tea and I was told by my Dr and the chemist to stay away from it.
I stopped drinking coffee while i tried to get pg but i have to say as soon as I was pg i craved coffee like you wouldnt believe.
I did however go off ice-cream and choc. 2 of my fav things. ice-cream smelt like old meat and choc was waxy. lol
hugs
