9dpo! Caffeine recommendations ?

Question

Hi everyone! 
I just had a very faint positive yesterday at 8dpo, and this is today’s at 9dpo! 
I have 2 kids, 7 & 5. Their father and I divorced about a year ago and I began dating my boyfriend shortly after, so I’m nervous about how they’ll react to me having a baby with someone who isn’t their dad. 
But my main concern, does anyone have any recommendations on pregnancy safe energy drinks or supplements? I’m a nurse and mom, definitely need that caffeine to keep me going lol. 
I’m excited to be on this journey with you all 🫶🏻

Answer

If it makes you feel any better, my mom had me when my brother and sister (from her ex husband) were only 7 and 4, and it never felt like we were half siblings, it just felt normal like we were all siblings. Even though now I look back at the math and realize she wasn’t even legally divorced from him when she got pregnant by my dad lol

Answer

They say up to 200mg of caffeine is safe
I am a self proclaimed caffeine addict, but while pregnant I try to limit myself to Stok iced coffee, black and try to see how low I can get my caffeine intake—it’s like a game where if I make it to a certain point in the day with no caffeine then I’ll bet myself I can’t make it the rest of the day 😂

Answer

Your story sounds very similar to mine. I got a divorce last year after 13 years of marriage. I have a 9 yo and a 10 yo. Started dating my boyfriend about 6 months ago and well oops…I’m nervous about how my kids will react. How everyone will react honestly. 
I personally try to avoid caffeine even though they say up to 200mg is acceptable. Bubblr are good and fall into that. I’m also a nurse and have a busy life and am going on day 3 of no caffeine. I try to pretend my decaf coffee is normal 😂
