When if ever are you allowed a cup of coffee?

The only thing I have cheated on was a cup of instant coffee with Protein Powder added at 7 weeks out. My Doc says never, so don't tell her. What about you?

My doctor allowed coffee at 4 weeks. Regular with caffeine!

my doc only allows Decaf coffee to avoid any dehydration that could be caused by the caffeine

At 8 weeks I was told I could again have coffee. I drink 2 to 3 cups a day and haven't had any problems. I think they try to limit how much you have because it does dehydrate and a lot of people add cream and sugar which can lead to trouble. I add truvia, not problems.

My doc said no coffee for 1 month, after that it was fine in limited quantities

My doc said ok, Decaf only

So far (3-weeks post-op) I am not allowed. Caffeine dehydrates and I'm struggling with getting all the fluids in that I need (my belly feels so full!). I may never go back to regular coffee. At this point I've not had caffeine for nearly a month and caffeine has it's downfall anyway. I love the taste of coffee so I may be on the Decaf train
