There are certain teas you should avoid ask your doctor which ones are best for you. Also, drink caffeine free tea so you don't have to worry about how much caffeine you are consuming.
I believe you should avoid Ginseng and Green tea, but I am not sure. I will check in my book and see what it says, but you should still double check with your doctor.
I drink orange pekoe, I know that is safe.
Just checked my book says the FDA has urged caution on the use of herbal teas during pregnancy and lactation. It also says Green tea should be limited since it may interfere with cell development and growth and that black teas are the safest to consume.

From what I understand, regular tea (black) is ok, if caffeinated, then only in moderation, but decaf is all good. I've heard that certain herbs are not good during pregnancy so find out which ones and avoid herbal teas that contain these. I recently heard that the god send of all tea, Green Tea, should be avoided during pregnancy, but I don't remember why. Sorry, I've got "placenta brain".
Good Luck

They have always told my sister no sodas, but I don't know about tea so I googled some things and I hope that my links will help answer at least a few of your questions. If you are really concerned consult your physician or OBGYN.

tea is fine, just remember that is has caffeine in it so drink it in moderation, don't exceed 3 cups a day of coffee coke or tea. and also decaf is NOT fine, they have done studies and the outcome was that women who drank decaf had a higher rate of miscarriage and defects.
