According to the University College Dublin (UCD), a consistent link can be seen between both caffeinated tea and coffee with negative birth outcomes.
941 pregnant Irish women were examined, with tea used as the predominant caffeine source in the study.
In the fully adjusted model, maternal caffeine intake was associated with lower birth weight, shorter birth length, smaller head circumference and shorter gestational age.
Higher risks for low birth weight and preterm birth were also seen.
Researchers at UCD concluded: "The associations were robust to the exclusion of participants with pregnancy complications and in never smokers.
"Similar higher risks of adverse birth outcomes were observed for the highest caffeine intake categories from coffee and tea, compared with the lowest intake categories.
"Maternal caffeine intake from both coffee and tea is associated with adverse birth outcomes."
