Can Babies Have Coffee?

If this is a burning question on your mind, the short answer is that it is not recommended for babies to have coffee. The main reason behind this is not that it will not stunt their growth, which is an old wives tale, but that it will disrupt their sleep patterns.

When coffee drinking was tested on baby rats, they showed fragmented sleep patterns and a faster breathing rate, resulting in less sleep. As a pregnant or breast-feeding mother, there is nothing wrong with drinking coffee in moderation at up to 3 cups per day, but it should not be directly given to the infant or drank in excess.

Coffee provides a number of disease fighting benefits, so it is recommended to be enjoyed regularly in moderation, but children should wait to enjoy it until they are older!
