Hi there! As what I've known, the FDA DISCOURAGES pregnant women (no matter how many weeks pregnant) to drink any beverages like caffeinated drinks, soda and even HERBAL TEAS. It's a big NO-NO since herbal teas are not yet proven to be safe for pregnancy.

I was told by my aunt that barley and chrysanthemum tea is okay.. But I dont dare try.. Doc only say no raw food.. and I don't take coffee so no other advice by doc.. even green was allowed by her.

You should ask your doctor first. Some teas are not proven as good for pregnancy.

I don think barley can .... Barley is consider very "liang"

my colleague has bought me a box of Organic Pregnancy Tea (Brand: Traditional Medicinals). Mummies maybe you can consider?
