Guest guest Posted September 20, 2005 Report Share Posted September 20, 2005 I've never been a big green tea fan even though it's supposed to be good for you. My English blood only likes black tea and I gave that up as soon as I found out I was prego. So, now I'm trying to like herbal teas, <sigh> it's just not the same as a nice cuppa (with cream & sugar, of course). I have drunk coffee on four different occassions. My midwife wants me to drink Mother's Milk and Raspberry Leaf both by Traditional Medicinals. I also bought their Ginger tea when I had the nausea, it worked nicely.
