Diet Caffeine Free Dr Pepper
Shame on all of you who knew about this concoction and didn’t share!
I’m drinking my first Diet Caffeine Free Dr Pepper and have to say it’s heavenly for a pregnant gal like me. I’ve tried to stomach the Coke version (we call this Coke free Coke in our little family) and honestly feel that it’s horribly vile! I was pleasantly surprised after drinking my first sip of this Dr P.
Another fave is A&W Diet Root Beer…which is naturally caffeine free. Plus, Fresca…which is naturally diet and caffeine free. None are substitutes for the nectar of the gods, Diet Coke, but they have been life savers while I’ve been taking greater care with what I put in my body these last 9-months.
Sorry I did not give you the heads up.
I still drank soda while pregnant with kid number 2 and 3 because my doc was okay with it as long as it was not diet. I could have one a day. I did not have soda with kid number one.
I hope you are feeling well!

Sun Dec 30, 2007 at 10:17 pmIsn’t it interesting how doctors have different opinions on such things? I can have two drinks with caffeine a day and they said to limit the amount of “fake” sugar I eat. So, I could have two diet cokes a day. However, I’ve been trying to go most days without either vice. Some days I do have that diet coke though and when I take that first sip, my eyes water with delight!
