NBR: Coffee drinkers, how many cups a day

carney09 · August 2010

do you consume?

I drink no more than 2 cups. Both in the mornings. I like to have one at home when I wakeup and while I'm getting ready. And then I have one when I get to work.

Anything over 2 cups and I'm not able to sleep at night. LOL! I can't even drink a Coke after like 3PM.

No more than 2 cups as well, one in the morning and usually one around 2 or 3 in the afternoon. Before I was pg it was always one in the morning but now with LO I feel like i need that extra caffeine in the afternoon too!

Im terrible. Since have LO, I probably average 4 a day, all before noon! When I was in college, I drank so much coffee that if I didn't have some by 11am the headaches were so bad that I'd throw up. Talk about addiction. I had cut it down to 1-2 cups prior to and during pregnancy, but the lack of sleep has definitely caused the intake to skyrocket since!!!

I only drink coffee when I work on the weekends. And, usually, it's 2 cups in a work shift. Sometimes 3, but no more than that. I have zero cups during the week when I'm home with DD. Not sure why.

only 1

every once and awhile I'll have half a soda in the afternoon if DD had a rough night and I'm tired.

mtbmama · August 2010

Mmmm...coffee! Usually 2-4 cups. It's like I'm making up for lost coffee consumption when I was BF. I never usually had that much.

BelhurstBride · August 2010

I was having one (it's all I've ever had) but recently decided to try cutting it out to see if it'd help with some of DD's spitting up.

MomOfClaire · August 2010

Usually one cup of coffee and one iced drink that has three shots of espresso. Yummm.

MelonieK · August 2010

Depends on how big the cup is LOL. I have 1 - 1.5 cups at home in the morning. Sometimes I'll have one when I get to work, usually if it was a rough night.

This morning I treated myself to McCafe Mocha. I'm thoroughly hooked on cappuccinos again after not having any at all while pregnant.

Aimeelb1 · August 2010

Usually just one in the mornings but more often than not I have a diet coke in the afternoons...

Chelle0112 · August 2010

2 or 3 cups, but only every couple of days.

Erin&Ryan · August 2010

Just one in the morning when I get to work.

ecu1995 · August 2010

I only have one in the mornings...but it is huge Stick out tongue

Stellarrific · August 2010

A big cup in the morning, that's usually it. When the weather turns cooler, I will probably have another in the afternoon, or maybe hot tea.

ashnoelle · August 2010

as much as I want. I make our coffee 1/2 caf (having approx 2-3 cups) and If I want more in the afternoon I just have decaf. The problem I have is making sure I get enough water to stay hydrated.

Ivana_Stolichnaya · August 2010

1 large one in the morning. If I start adding in an afternoon cup then I get hooked and start depending on that pm cup. As we all know...caffeine dependency = massive headaches.

KRMac · August 2010

One in the morning...although sometimes I have another 1/2 cup to warm it up. Work always seems to get in the way of my coffee drinking.

I have a diet coke in the afternoon a few days a week too.

vbarnie · August 2010

I make a pot in the morning and have it all day. =( I'm a little dependent on it. But I do drink a cup of water before my next cup, which makes me feel a little better about it.

Erika6504 · August 2010

1 Starbucks Venti in the morning. But I drink probably 2-3 cokes throughout the day.

AyeDavanita · August 2010

As much as possible.

I have a cup or two and pretty much every single time I run an errand I get an Americano at Starbucks! I used to have 2 of those a day when I was working....so it was hard to cut back fully!

bakedlaurabean · August 2010

I was drinking more than I should (2 to 3 cups plus an espresso drink in the afternoon) and I think it was affecting DS. I've now cut back to 2 or 3 cups of half caf and if I drink something in the afternoon, it's decaf or tea. When I say cups, I'm talking about 6 oz servings, not huge mugs or anything. And sometimes I don't even finish the cup, I just refill, but always leave a little in the end.

xtencornfield · August 2010

I have my travel mug of coffee and that's it for caffeine for the day unless I have some chocolate or something. My travel mug is probably 1.5 cups.

eitaknna9 · August 2010

About 3-4 each morning. I am drinking decaf because of BF, but am used to it because I cut out caffeine when I was pregnant. I don't miss the caffeine anymore, and just enjoy coffee for the flavor. That said, I do look forward to drinking regular again!
