I miss caffeine!!!

[rach3975]

ME TOO! Luckily I don't have to give it up entirely when I'm pregnant, but I only have caffeinated coffee once a week. I'm sitting here dreaming of a cup while I try to stay awake and take care of my 2 cranky kids...

I'm not a huge coffee drinker, but giving up my daily crack... I mean coke... has been difficult. I seriously love that stuff. Can't wait for this kiddo to make her appearance so I can have some!!!

Thanks for all the suggestions...but I don't think anything can take the place kwim lol...

BTW I have given up caffeinated drinks but I draw the line at chocolate...I just got finished having a chocolate shake after lunch lol

What about caffeine-free Mt. Dew? Or is there any kind of coffee drink mix that wouldn't have caffeine?

[mcardall]

caffeine free dew isn't bad, actually... caffeine free diet dr. pepper is pretty good, too.

I've been drinking caffeine free coke..it's okay, but if you're a real caffeine addict you can tell the difference lol

I tried decaf coffee for a few days and it just isn't worth the bother to me lol

i think i was absent the day everyone else my age started drinking coffee! i just never started! Not that im really complaining, just one less thing to give up i guess! i do feel bad for you tho. If someone told me i had to give up chocolate....well now that just doesnt bare thinking about!

I switched to green tea while I was pregnant, and I still drink it. I just add a little bit of honey and lemon and it's YUMMY!

I think it's amazing that you've cut it out completely!! Good for you!! I get those cravings for a Pepsi and I have to indulge!!! Something about the taste!! Hopefully your resting heart rate doesn't get as high this time!!

It's been really hard to not drink any...and I have once or twice tried a little like if we were out at a resturant or something but it's so weird how my body reacts to it right now..I can literally feel my heart racing and I'll get what feels like my heart skipping a beat and then thumping real hard in my chest. It's crazy b/c usually it has NO effect on me...I mean I can get up in the middle of the night and drink a glass of mt dew and go right back to sleep.
