Yes you can if coffee has not given you any problems when not pregnat.
Yes
Coffee in moderation- whatever that means- is not associated with any adverse fetal outcome. Enjoy your caffeine!
Yes, 1 cup a day of coffee is fine during pregnancy. You will definitely feel more heart palpitations during pregnancy even with 1 cup, switch to decaf if needed.
There are no studies which show fetal growth restriction with one cup.
Good luck !
Happy pregnancy!!

Yes, up to 2 cups of coffee is safe during pregnancy. But you cannot have any more caffeine than that. Babies can go through withdrawal from caffeine at birth.

Should not drink more than 2 cups a day, but definitely not decaffeinated coffee.
I usually allow my patients one cup a day.
