I normally do not like Pepsi but for some reason I am wanting Pepsi like crazy!! I know it's not good for the baby but I have been drinking it here and there trying not to drink too much.

8 Oz a day is fine just make sure to get extra water or go for diet if you can stomach it

I don't know if there's a caffeine free Pepsi, but if you like come they sell that as caffeine free. I had the same craving and was pumped when I saw caffeine free Cokes! Tastes the same as the regular stuff too

Yes, you can get Coke, Pepsi, and Dr Pepper as caffeine-free. Not diet, just caffeine free. Tastes just like the regular stuff. I love it! :-)

Omg, have to tell you that I crave Dr Pepper.  It has to be fountain style with lots of ice.  I never drink soda!   I went to a gas station & found out you can get any size fountain drink there for .99!   It too all my willpower not to buy the super gulp size. :)   Good luck with your craving.

I normally don't drink soda at all but throughout the pregnancy I've craved 7up. Figure its not the worst thing in the world so I drink it a few times a week. Sometimes with a plop of vanilla ice cream in it :D. ... FYI caffeine free coke is good and tastes just like regular.
