Caffiene and pregnancy

[Ambertane]

I know you cant have caffiene when pregnant, so what doesnt contain caffiene that I can drink??

I understand caffiene is not reccommended during pregnancy, but I have had coffee (not.decaf) with all three of my pregnancies! I have found through research, if you drink subquently HIGH amounts then it can be a problem. Everything has turned out normal and no problems due to the caffiene. I would say use your own judgement on how important it is to you and make your own decision.

Pretty much everything you might want to drink can be found in a decaf version.

I drink a lot of water (always good), decaf coffee (when I feel like having coffee). Many non-cola sodas are caffeine free anyway (Sprite [lemon lime sodas in general], Rood Beer, most fruit flavored sodas)

The hardest thing to find in decaf is cocoa since chocolate has some caffeine. Since you can safely have SOME caffeine, I chose not to worry about the small amount that is in chocolate.
