Quitting Caffeine
I don't remember what quiting drinking caffeine was like when I got pregnant with Ayden, but I'm pretty sure that if it was this bad I would remember. I drink ALOT of caffeine (in the form of diet dr. pepper :))! I get bad headaches and migraines and pretty much live on caffeine and ibuprofen. Pretty much the whole time we were trying to conceive I was dreading the day I'd have to give them up. I think after this whole experience I won't go back to drinking soda again. As soon as we found out I was pregnant I stopped drinking soda and taking ibuprofen. Immediatly afterwards I had an intense headache that lasted about 5 day's straight. Today is the first day that the headache has become tolerable and boy am I grateful for that! Luckily, whatever morning sickness I had has gone away for the time being so I haven't had to deal with that too! The good thing out of all of this is that I really don't have any craving for soda anymore, in fact soda doesn't sound good at all anymore. I have been drinking raspberry lemonade crystal lite and it is SO yummy! So after all of this I think I'm going to be quitting soda for good! No more caffeine! I think that it's a very good thing that we had to try for so long to get pregnant, because despite four day headaches I am thrilled to be pregnant!
