I am going nuts because we are not suppose to tell people until after the first trimester and I just want to tell the world.
I have my first sonogram next week. Praying for great results and the news that all is going well. I am 40 so things are statistically a bit more iffy. I am thinking good thoughts (no smoking, moderate drinking, no drugs, good amount of exercise, eat well most of the time) but I will feel less nervous after next week.
So for the next 9 months I will be drinking Rooibos and whatever herbals I come across that I like that do not include rosemary. I will drink the other teas vicariously through all of you.
And yess, I know how to decaffinate tea but it still leaves a small amount of caffeine and I fall into that catagory of people who is not willing to take even a small risk when it comes to the health of my baby so I will just avoid tea.

Very many congratulations @prof!!
Rooibos is the only tea I drink, and it did me no harm (or at least, I drink it when they release on of my arms from the straitjacket
).
But seriously, take it easy, and I wish you all the best. Is this your first?
Nothing in my cup right now. Contemplating a glass of red wine (but I won't mention that to @prof...).
