1 - Caffeine is not Baby's friend.

2 - I don't REALLY need more sugar to make me bounce off the walls, it's already a wonderful day without the head drama llama.

3 - I am rapidly expanding to size of a dairy cow instead of a bantam Cochin. More calories will not help that.

twizzlers are 0 fat

So is Cherry Coke. But 0 fat does not equal 0 calories, much to my dismay.

However, it's more the 23 mg of caffeine in 8 ounces of the Cherry Coke that is keeping me from it. Made worse by the fact that we only have 20 ounce bottles here, thus I'd have 57.5 mg of caffeine.

I avoided any caffeinated beverages when I was pregnant. That was really okay anyway, 'cause I'd have just vomited them back up again. And carbonation hurts going the other direction.

See why I only have two on the ground?

Stupid, bad weather. We got to 81* yesterday, it was LOVELY. Today, meh. 53* or something like that, but it's really windy and the wind is cold.

You know what boo likes to do on windy days? wrestle her umbrella in the dead of night in her pj's....I think we should all try that some day.

If I am awake in the middle of the night, it's because I've got an upset or hungry child. That does not mean I have to go outside. I think I will not try the dead of night umbrella wrestling.

Actually, I should be honest. If I'm awake in the middle of the night, I've got a hungry child. If they have a nightmare, DH gets to deal with that.

My legs keep waking me up in the middle of the night...what's that all about? They don't wanna hold still.

Yup, that's why I'm not drinking the Cherry Coke. Carbonation doesn't bother me, but caffeine does. Wonder if they restocked the Cherry 7-Up at work.

Yeah, puking for me is limited, I just feel like I might. As such, nope, I've not learned my lesson yet.

Mmmmm, cherry 7-UP. I love that stuff!

I, unfortunately, perfected the art of vomiting while pregnant to the point of being able to vomit directly into a car cup and not splash a drop out of it. I was not amused. My dentist was, he made a boatload of money filling all the resulting cavities.

I don't tolerate caffeine either...I'm rather sensitive to it...but for some reason my mom got me an iced coffee drink and I'm drinking it. And my heart says, you idiot...I told you not to do that...and then I start getting anxiety...and my mind tells me...you idiot...I told you not to do that...but my mouth says, ok, just one lil sip.

I live off caffeine. Just hook me up to an IV and I'd be set for the day.

Oh my gosh...me too...I never thought about that being a cause of some of my problems. My dentist blamed it on my diuretics and having a dry mouth letting the food and bacteria sit there and fester. He told me to drink lots of water and chew gum with sorbitol.
