I was advised not to by the hospital lactation consultants. There is an ingredient in Diet Soda that babies can potentially be allergic to.

My doctor told me no artificial sugar/diet drinks, so I don't drink any diet drinks. I think in moderation it would be okay though.

I do too but I try to not drink much and I will do it right after I pump (I exclusively pump) hoping that it is out of my system by the next one. (I do the same with anything caffeinated and alcohol when I have it)

I don't think aspartame is a good idea when BFing. I don't use artificial sweeteners at all.
