Well as soon as i found out i got preg i decided to stop completely. I went cold turkey on smoking, drinking and i thought while i was cutting things out i would cut out coffee. because i drank far to much....

well as the weeks have gone on ive had no prob with fabs and drinks......but coffee has slowly slipped back into me life.....

But the last 2 weeks i cant get enough of it. I do have de-caf cappicino and de-caf coffee.....but it aint the same. So every day i allow meself a cup of a normal one.......but it tastes so so so so so good!!!

Anyone else loving coffee at the mo??? but trying to restrict yourself??? Or have you been able to cut it out your diet?? or have you just continued as normal throughout???

YUM

Before pregnancy, I drank coffee morning, noon and night. I did cut down during pregnancy, but didn't quit drinking it. I'd have about 3 cups of hot coffee in the morning and an iced coffee in the afternoon. During the last weeks of pregnancy though, I would buy the iced coffee and I couldn't drink it due to heartburn so I turned to ice and water.

Now that I am not pregnant, coffee morning, noon and night. Ice and water doesn't taste the same either. LOL

I've never been a massive coffee or tea drinker, but did enjoy a nice latte, maybe a couple of times a week. Before I was pregnant me and my best mate had a craze on those nescafe latte's for a while.
Since being pregnant, didn't really drink alot of coffee until maybe the start of summer, when I rediscovered the joy of a starbucks frappachino!! (well, it's coffee basd! lol) Yummy! Then moved back to latte again, and for the past few weeks, have treated myself most days to a latte from Costa or Starbucks. God I feel really gulity when i think about how much I've spent on coffees lately!

i miss it sooooo uch. i have a decaf a day but i am gagging for a real one.

lucky for me my hospital is right next door to bluewater and as i am a starbucks guru my mum knows that on the way to meet her grandchild she is to take a detour to pick me up a smoked salmon and cream cheese wth rocket sandwich and a coffee frapacino (spelling) from starbuks in bluewater - seriously this is what i have missed i could do without the alcohol but starbucks is a whole different matter
