How much caffeine do u have in a day?

[VampMum1980]

as im really craving coke but dunno how much is safe?

 

[agreeksmom]

no more than 300 mg a day i usually have 1 extra large coffee a day but i mix it with hot chocolate so i guess its only a med. coffee then lol

you can have 3 cans of coke,,,,i dont know who drinks that much but just keep an eye on what your drinking

but 1-2 cups of coffee tea wont hurt

 

[mightyspu]

I was going to say 1-2 units a day, but that's alcohol isn't it! I imagine the odd can here and there won't hurt. This is what the NHS website says

In the nhs book it says no more than 200 mg a day and says 1 mug instant coffee is 100mg, filter coffee 140mg, tea 75mg, 1 can of coke 40mg, can of energy drink 80mg, plain choc bar 50mg and milk choc bar 25mg.

So you can have a few glasses of coke I guess. I normally have a cup of tea when I get up and then 2 or 3 glasses of coke maximum per day so I suppose I have almost the limit really. I did the same with my last pregnancy and he's fine x

[ricschick]

Sometimes i have none and sometimes i have a bit. If i drink coke i dont drink more than one glass a day, and i dont drink tea/coffee because i dont like it lol. Also i do eat chocolate but only small bits at a time

Have you tried caffeine free coke? It's disgusting! lol

I'm drinking a normal amount of coke each day but I've always drunk decaf tea and coffee so I stick to them and have coke when I want but not loads, normally a 500ml bottle a day in work

i have lots of coke, lots of tea and chocolate.....all have caffine in! Its a personal choice (and lack of will power!)

My one and only vice is Coke. I would have it every day without fail. I don't get caffeine anywhere else, so I only know the amount of coke you can have. When I first got pregnant, the rule was no more than 5 cans per day, as written in "What to Expect When You're Expecting". I was watching a news report when I was about 16 weeks, and they said the limit had recently been reduced it to 4 cans per day, and that's the new guidance in the UK. That's the safe limit; so if you have that much, you shouldn't feel guilty about it. If you go over, it's still safe, as long as you're not doing it every day.

I had to come off caffeine in the second tri because I had migraines, so the docs thought it was worth a try to detox my system, so I went onto caffeine-free diet coke. I have three words for you: not worth it. As soon as it emerged that the caffeine hadn't been causing my migraines, I started drinking it again. For me it's like nicotine is to a smoker. It's so familiar to me it calms me down and makes me feel warm and fuzzy. I know that sounds weird, but it's true. If I go through a horrible ordeal, I will get a can of Coke and gulp it down. TMI but I had an ingrown toenail removed, and forget the painkillers; a can of ice cold full-fat Coke was all I needed to sort me out! I think the sugar and caffeine give me a little high

i have quite a lot of coke everyday because cant really drink anything else, even water makes me sick in the morning for some reason. im not worrying about it because everyone ive known thats had babies have drank loads of coke and theres been no problems.

 

[emsiee]

In first tri, I craved coke for some reason and had about 2 glasses per day. I completely cut out coffee cause it made me feel me ill.

Now I have 2 cups of coffee a day per day, and probably more chocolate than I should have too...but I think thats fine.

 

[venusrockstar]

I miss my coke too...but I wouldn't dare drink the "diet" or caffeine free ones because I'm pretty sure all of those have aspartame in them which has been linked to quite a few problems. I'm really uneasy about the whole thing.

 

[Sarah10]

If i bought coke i would drink it all day long

 

[JASMAK]

None...once in awhile I will have a bit of chocolate...but that's it.

 

[Linz88]

0 cups a day x

 

[rainbows_x]

I don't drink coffee but drink about 3/4 of a big bottle of cherry coke a day, I also have glasses of juice & water.

 

[GossipGirl]

[Parkep]
