So jittery!

So I ordered a decaf latte from a coffee shop by my office this morning and they must have forgot the decaf part because I am super hyper and jittery now!  I have been phasing caffeine out for the past 6 months so I'm really not used to it and I can't sit still now, plus I'm getting really lightheaded. 

I'm chugging water right now and I'm guessing there is nothing else I can do other than just wait for it to pass, right?

    I had the same issue with a decaff coffee from Starbucks. My 1st thought was it had caffeine in it, but then it dawned on me that I was probably jittery due to the bazillion mg of sugar in it.

    But anyway, in your case, try eating some bread & definitely keep drinking that water.

    If you aren't at work, try going for a walk or some other light exercise to use some of that energy. I had a 1/2caf latte on Saturday... it was amazing and I loved it :) I'm sure I will easily slip back into daily coffees once this LO gets here!

    That would suck if they gave you the real deal. Also remember, no coffee is truly decaf! There's a lot of info out there comparing brands and measuring the amount of caffeine in their decaf products. 

    I hope the jitters chill out soon!

    I just ate 3 pieces of pizza, so hopefully that helps. Everyone at work is going to think I'm on drugs I'm so hyper!

    if you want to be safe I think they sell these little strips that you can test your coffee on.they change color based on how much caffeine is in your coffee!

    That's a great idea! I'll look for those.
