A World Without Diet Coke??!!
Okay, maybe this is an exaggeration, because I don’t think I’m actually capable of cutting it out of my world entirely. I’m sure we’ve all seen the study linking caffeine and miscarriage by now, but it’s on my mind so I’m blogging about it. SavvyToddlerMom was one step ahead of me on this. I was already cutting back just to be conscientious, and I probably don’t really have anything to worry about, but I think it’s just a sign that I need to seriously cut the habit. I’m going to 1 a day max. I’ve been mixing my Diet Coke with Caffeine Free Diet Coke for the past few weeks, and I think that’s going to be my trick. I brought a Crystal Light water bottle packet out to lunch today and just stirred it in my water. I’m sorry, but I just need something sweeter than water with my meals and I don’t need any extra calories! Sigh.

I saw this and about died too! The only good thing is that when I was pregnant with little boy I actually couldn’t stand the taste of diet coke (or anything else for that matter) for the first 4 months and I had maybe one or two until I was six months pregnant. Then I had one a day until the end. If it weren’t for hating the taste during morning sickness…I don’t know what I’d do!
