If you don't drink coffee...

leneae10

do you obtain caffeine from another source (if so, what?) or do you abstain?

ETA: I'm asking as I drink my morning Diet Dr. P and am disgusted with myself.

Now that I'm not BFing my go to caffeine is from tea. I have no tolerance for caffeine so it doesn't take much to get buzzed.

I'm stuck on "if you don't drink coffee" thing.

My world doesn't turn without coffee. 

Seriously... I like the taste of it when it's covered in chocolate, but it makes me almost lose control of my bowels.  I'm not kidding.  I cannot drink it regularly.

Nada.

Are you into tea at all? I switch to hot tea after ten pm, or I get jittery (from my five cups of java, but you know.)

 

I need to.  I love iced tea and I drink a TON in the winter, I guess I need to find one with lots o' caffeine!  I'm heading to Target so I'll see what I can find.

This.  It's the only way I can start the day.  And it makes for a happy Mommy.

I do drink coffee, but sometimes - if I've had tummy troubles or AF is being particularly crampy, I don't want it.  Then I just make myself a strong cup of black tea.  I find it's easier on the belly but the caffeine punch is almost as good.

I drink diet pepsi.  I drink more now that I did when I was pumping.  I really need to cut back or quit, but DD also needs to STTN - lol.

I'm a diet coke drinker, personally.  I do not like coffee.  I think it smells great and tastes like dirt.  I'll drink a hot tea occasionally, but I'm naturally a warm person and a hot beverage just makes me sweat so I tend to avoid them unless I'm cold.

I don't drink any caffeinated drinks - I stopped almost 10 years ago due to migraines. I get by with water & occasionally juice.

I gave up coffee when we started TTC and never really went back.  I usually have a fountain Dr. Pepper or Coke in the morning.

Before this pregnancy, I would drink Diet Coke and an occasional latte.  I've had a couple pops since DS was born, but I guess I don't "need" it as much as I used to.

Try some chai tea, it taste like fall. Get the Oregon brand in liquid form mix with milk drink hot or cold yum!

When not pg I usually have a Pepsi. I normally don't tell people either, so I know where you're coming from.

I drink Starbuck Tazo Tea, I usually get Awake (which is just a black tea).  Then Ice Tea during the day....  I don't really like soda though.

Coke or as it's called in my family, aka nectar of life in my family...seriously.
