For Caffeine Lovers...


Did anyone else see this article yesterday? Unborn babies are being killed by Diet Coke everyday.

I was worried about this with my pregnancies but there is only 34 mg of caffeine in one can of diet coke.

The study is based on women who consume more than 200 mg per day. Drinking more than two cups of coffee per day(200mg of caffeine,)which is very likely, would be equivalent to drinking more than a 12 pack of diet coke per day which is not so likely.... well maybe Curtis could down that much in a day ;)

is it ok for me to still guzzle the d.c. if there is no baby in my near future?

Diet coke is "dangerous" in 2 ways - the aspartame is also really bad for babies. It is scary how many things there are that you are supposed to try to avoid when pregnant. Oh well - it's worth it for a cute little baby. :-)
