emw said:Oddly enough, I'm just the opposite. When my wife got pregnant with our first, we both got off caffeine. That was almost 6 years ago, and since then I've had almost none. Although I do drink decaf coffee on occasion.
I have been good on caffeine since HS (aside from a few all-nighters in college). I was nearly completely caffeine free since getting done with college in '99 (the few instances when that was broken involved lots of alcohol and late nights). I made it through my wife's pregnancy fine.
Once the baby hit I needed an extra boost. Of course I am up late at night because I am working on my master's degree for one more year. Once that's done I'll probably cut back quite a bit. But I'm actually starting to like coffee. I did everything I could to not like it, but I'm starting to actually enjoy coffee rather than drink it for the boost....
