Does Caffine Matter?
| Tue, 09-16-2003 - 3:08pm |
Hello i was just wondering if caffine had an impact on trying to conceive. Many people have told me to stop drinking diet soda because it has caffine and if i was serious about having a baby then i should not drink it. Does anybody have any thoughts on this issue?

Thank you so much for your info. I know i have about three sodas a day, but they are all diet. I am going to have a hard time giving them up until i see that BFP sign. Then i will not drink them anymore. I know i should give them up sooner, but i figure why? When i do see that sign i will be more than happy to just drink caffine free soda. I do drink a lot of water though so i guess that is a good thing. I hope i am prego this month but i have to wait at least eight more days to test. My last period started on Aug. 23rd. and my cycles are usually 36 days long. But since i have been off the pill (since last Oct.) every cycle comes closer to 28 days, so maybe i caught the O this time. We will just have to see.

My RE told me that some diet soda is fine, so long as there aren't any other fertility problems. In my case, I'm ovulating on my own and things are fine, so I'm still having diet soda once in a while (although I only buy decaffienated Diet Coke just in case!)
Best of luck to you - many doctors differ on this opinion, so go with whatever your doctor recommends.
