Chocolate

Chocolate

Someone said to me that I shouldn't eat chocolate during pregnancy because of caffeine. Does chocolate really have that much caffeine?

Re: Chocolate

depends on how much you can eat.

I ate tons of chocolate - I know it was bad - but I had a piece of dark chocolate every day. A little Hershey's Miniature. This 'perk' has been a staple in my diet for 3 years. I am convinced it's how I lost 15 pounds. I refused to give that up and added more than a few on some days!

Re: Chocolate

same here - I don't have any reg. coffee or iced tea or soda with caff., so I splurge on chocolate from time to time

(my dr said I could have 1-2 cups of reg. coffee per day, so apparently a little bit of caff. won't kill ya!)

Re: Chocolate

i confess I think I eat more know but not everyday

Re: Chocolate

Chocolate does have some caffeine, but there is no way I would EVER give up chocolate!

LOL! I am just starting to be able to eat chocolate again, there's no way I am giving that up. But all in moderation of course...
