Hello

Well for some reason after a yr of not drinking Coke, now that I am preggers I crave it like crazy. So every now and then I drink a Coke, but I notice a patern... Ofcourse I know It will make me more dehydrated and every morning after drinking just half a cup of coke I feel like my heart is about to pop out of my chest.
I cant say the same for Coffe, but BOY I CRAVE CARAMEL LATTES EVERY SINGLE DAY!
With all the BAD craving I have really lost track of how well I used to eat... I can sit here and eat a whole water melon..(ok not a whole one)... but most of it in 2 days..lol...
My Hubby is always teasing me before he goes of to work...
So I guess no more Coke for me...did anyone experience this?

I have never drank regular soda - even when I was younger and bigger I always drank Caffeine Free Diet Pepsi (because that's what my mom drank.) Starting just last week - I have the biggest cravings for Pepsi - regular. I'm not good and have given in, but I limit myself to one a week - because I never say no to anything - it's my rule. I'm more into moderation than anything. But I have been craving things I don't normally eat that's for sure (especially white macadamia nut cookies!)

I drank (am drinking) one or two cans of Coke Zero a day.... for the first 3-4 months I limited it to 1 can...but went up to 2 on some days now.

The caffeine doesn't bother me or the baby in the Coke....but if I switch my coke to tea (Like Snapple or even fresh brewed) the baby goes crazy with movement!  I don't know why the caffeine would be different in tea vs. coke?  Unless it's something else in the tea the baby loves (or hates). 

I used to be a HUGE coffee drinker.... vente iced breve lattes every day..... but as soon as I got pregnant coffee (even decaf) disgusts me.....   I hope I can enjoy it again after the baby is born!

I can understand the watermelon thing. I have not had it since being pregnant at all. Then at the BBQ we were at on Memorial day they had seedless watermelon cut up in a bowl and I just sat down and kept eating and eating and eating it.... I could not stop! It just tasted like 1000 times better than watermelon has ever tasted to me.... strange huh?

Maybe you are just craving the taste of it and not really the caffeine?  Maybe you could try caffeine free coke/diet coke?  It's worth a try....Oh and if you want to replace coffee, you could try Postum.  It's made from wheat or something.  It tastes like the distant cousin of coffee.  I like it now and then.  I make it with milk and add in a flavored sugar free syrup like Caramel, White Chocolate, whatever I'm in the mood for. 
I've never heard of anyone's heart racing from a half cup of coke.  Maybe it's the sugar that's doing it?  I know dumping can cause the heart to race.  But I didn't look to see what WLS you may have had. 
Take care.
