Need to shake the coke habit..
Coca Cola that is...
I've done caffeine free before but I really am addicted! It's terrible. I have tried switching out water or juice when I crave a soda but it's soooo not working well....
Any tips for shaking the caffeine habit? I don't drink coffee... And we're talking maybe 1 can of coke a day... Not an extreme ammount but enough to be concerned about for me....

Re: Need to shake the coke habit..
Coke has been the only thing that i've craved during my entire pregnancy....if I drink it (i try not to drink it every day) I limit myself to one a day. I don't drink coffee or tea so I'm not really having any other caffeine so I figure it's ok.

Re: Need to shake the coke habit..
I drink a large iced coffee every morning, you are allowed one-2 cups coffee/day so I don't see what the hurt in a can of coke/day is...

Re: Need to shake the coke habit..
My dr. said 1-2 cups of coffee a day are okay so I can't imagine why it wouldn't be the same for coke.

Re: Need to shake the coke habit..
I hear so many things about caffeine increasing your risk of m/c. I'm really petrified... That should be reason enough for my body to not want it- but somehow that craving remains.....

Re: Need to shake the coke habit..
I wouldn't worry about it too much. Miscarriages happen whether you try to prevent it or not.
With my first pregnancy, I followed every rule, restriction and guideline and still m/c.
This pregnancy, I have my medium coffee in the morning and have other things on the "forbiddeen" list ocassionally.
You'll drive yourself crazy, have a can a a day but first speak to your doctor, I am sure they will say it's OK.

Re: Need to shake the coke habit..
I drank regular, sugar free soda my entire pregnancy. I started b/c I was so sick and it would help my stomach, I figured since my doctor said one cup of coffee a day was fine (couldn't stomach that), I could have some soda.
Then when I was losing weight and I was dehydrated, my doctor told me to drink it.
