Re: Hot chocolate
A cup won't be bad -- I'd say go for it.

Re: Hot chocolate
The March of Dimes recommends that women who are pregnant or trying to become pregnant consume no more than 200 milligrams (mg) of caffeine per day. This is the amount of caffeine in about one 12-ounce cup of coffee.

According to this, you could have 30 cups of hot chocolate, and still fall under your daily max for caffeine.  Go for it.

Re: Hot chocolate
One little warning about chocolate. I craved chocolate pudding for almost all of my first and second trimester. I indulged in this craving more often than not  . Turns out, chocolate is one of the things that causes heartburn, which I have unfortunately suffered from my entire pregnancy. Nothing a few tums can't help, but just be aware that if you start to get heartburn, it could very well be the chocolate doing it. Have some Tums Smoothies handy and enjoy
