i went off of red bull until 21 weeks, now i have a small one almost daily, it has been very stressful and not very much sleep and i almost fell asleep while driving ... trying to wean myself again.
it is too much caffeine but wont put you in the hospital. i used to drink 3-4 large pre pregnancy

I'd try not to worry, I find it very hard to believe there is anything in it that could put you in hospital... as I've discovered you'll find all sorts of horror stories on the Internet that seem to have no truth to them.

It looks like there is about 80mg of caffeine in 200ml of rockstar, so considering there is 100mg in a cup of instant coffee and the NHS guidance is no more than 200mg a day I really wouldn't worry
