Having a small amount of caffeine during labor is generally safe. If you’ve been drinking caffeine throughout your pregnancy, a cup of coffee or tea can be okay. It can give you a small boost of energy, which might be helpful during labor.
However, it’s always important to check with your healthcare provider first, as they can give advice based on your specific situation. Some hospitals might have specific policies about what’s allowed during labor, so that may affect your ability to have caffeine while you’re in labor.
