Is hot chocolate ok?

Post by Fingers crossed »

I know that we are supposed to be avoiding caffine..so I have given up my very important late which I had once a day...and I have read that decaf is worse than normal...so can we safely have a hot chocolate or are the caffine levels too high?

Silly question I know but I am getting a bit bored with camomile tea when ever I go out and meet friends for 'coffee'

Thanks

I've never been told to cut out caffeine and all my girls are ok, although I have read you should cut it down. I've swapped my diet coke for caffeine free. I'm sitting drinking a cup of tea as I type! I probably only have one coffee a week but still have about 4 cups of tea a day.

For me a hot chocolate is a no no because of the amount of sugar in it (I'm diabetic).

Easier said than done but you need to chill a little, stress is definately not good for the baby!

Best of luck
