Yes, just stay under 200mg of caffeine per day. That's even okay during pregnancy. Seriously, do what you need to so you can keep yourself sane. You are going through a lot. Take care of yourself.

Yup, before and after transfer and throughout pregnancy!

My dr's office said 200mg caffeine during stims is fine, but after that -- none is preferred and recommended. And, really, I wouldn't do it...I don't need yet another factor to question when results are not as desired.

Yes. But not a lot. Just one cup a day over 4 IVF and 3 IUIs.
Anecdotally: that includes the cycle I got pregnant but later miscarriaged. (And coffee had NOTHING to do with it, chromosomal abnormalities did.)
The cycle I switched to decaf, I had a PGS normal embryo and BFN.

I didn't. My RE said something to me about treating myself to a latte after my retrieval since I wouldn't be able to drink it after they implanted later that week. Had she not said that I would have drank (a little) coffee after the transfer.

SG says no caffeine during the entire pregnancy. Seems a bit draconian to me. If my pregnancy is so fragile that a cup of coffee will do it in then count me out.

I drank caffeine throughout my treatment and pregnancy.

I don't think you should say SG. My RE from SG said it is fine to drink coffee during pregnancy and I did.

This is what the SG website says.
