Okay you guys, I cut out soda 3 years ago! I originally did it for weight loss & then I just stuck to it because caffeine & anxiety don't mix for me lol.

But! I've been CRAVING a soda so dang bad. I know they make caffeine free/sugar free soda now.. If I have one, will it spike my anxiety?

What is your experience here?

Go for it, indulge!

A can or 2 isn't going to cause you any grief. If you don't have any blood sugar issues with the pregnancy then I would just go for caffeine free and skip the diet stuff. You don't want to be putting those sweetener chemicals into you or baby Zane.!

Oh crap! I did too, it sucks in a HUGE way!

I very much doubt that one or 2 diet sodas will do any damage.

If it worries you call your OBGYN office and ask.

Try sparkling water instead

Okay she suggested caffeine free soda or carbonated water! Exactly what you two suggested! Haha
