Dr Pepper

Any one else craving the crap out of soda?? I wanted to kick this habit while pregnant, but all I crave is Dr. Pepper. UGH!!!!


 


Re: Dr Pepper

  • I loved Dr. Pepper before I was pregnant but now I'm also really craving it. My husband bought me those little 12 oz. bottles of it before we found out about baby so I've allowed myself to drink half of one of those a day. It's not enough, but it will have to do!

  • I was just saying at lunch how much I wanted a coke from a fountain.  I do not normally drink anything but water but I really have a strong craving for one today!

  • I hate coffee too, and I would usually drink diet coke (before pregnancy) but now all I want is Dr. Pepper. I drove to McDonalds this morning just to have a fountain Dr. Pepper. Ooooops!


     


  • Dr. Pepper is my lover. I limit myself to one a day, but I am not giving them up. Occasionally I'll switch that out for a Coke from McDonald's.

  • @dorothyzbornak97 I don't know why it's better, but it definitely is. Maybe it's the carbonation. Or maybe it's sent straight from heaven. You need to check it out.

    Ha!  My sincerest apologies. I vote that you eat up, pregnant woman!  Hopefully my SN doesn't start making any of the nauseous ladies sick.  I would feel kind of bad about that.

  • I am not sure why its so much better either, but I swear it is. LOL


     


  • Fountain pop= fuzzy carbonated liquid from heaven. Idk why it's so much better but when I want pop I go grab a polar pop from our local convenient store! I'm personally a Pepsi drinker but Dr Pepper is one of those that brings all of us pop lovers together!

    OK, the fountain coke with the crushed up little ice balls... yum.   :P


    Speaking of crushed ice balls... Sonic's ice is the best!! And a cherry limeade sounds awesome!!

    Amazing how our pregnant brains get so easily distracted!

  • Dr pepper junkie here: I was told up to 200mg of caffeine is safe, and a dr peeper 12oz can has around 37mg. So, I think technically you could have four or so dr peppers per day. However, I've been limiting myself to one in the morning while i get ready and then water only and caffeine free later on. If its the dr pepper flavor you're craving, rather than the caffeine, they make a caffeine free version that tastes EXACTLY the same. Look for it with the dr pepper, only in a gold box and gold can. That's my lifesaver.. :)
  • Oddly enough a strong craving for Dr. Pepper was one of my first symptoms. I used to drink it ll the time in my teens and just lost my taste for it. Suddenly though I couldn't get enough! Now, of course, I am cutting out all caffeine, but it's funny how we all craved the same thing.
  • Now I am craving both, Dr Pepper and McD fountain coke ... 
    Oh and I have been craving Mc Nuggets since last week, guess I need to make a trip to McDonalds soon

  • Another Dr. Pepper lover here. I also love my coffee too. This is day 4 of no coffee for me but I have been allowing myself one Dr. Pepper a day. We just got our BFP on Sunday February 10th so I'm trying to remember all the changes I need to be making.
