IM 36 weeks now, and i didnt drink coffe all this time, but recently we bought this esspreso machine and I've been making such a great coffee for my husband that I'm feeling tempted!!! My doctor said that coffee was good but I've heard so many people say that is not...what are your opinions????

wow! that's a lot, i always try it when i make it for my husband, and the funny thing is i didnt drink coffee before i got pregnant, or all the time i've been pregnant and now all of the sudden i get these cravings in the morning when i smell it! lol.

its normal...and its normal when pregnant, there is that total change of preference to what you like.

I know, I'm still trying to regain my taste for meat, cuz my baby did not like any of it! And I'm not crazy about it either, but I think together with my baby my body just couldn't handle it...

Nope. I never drank anything else but water daily, and juice once in a while. I avoid coffee and tea plus sodas like Coke because of the caffeine content (first) and then sugar content. I am used to taking my coffee with sugar and with my family history (three of my cousins have either diabetes or gestational diabetes plus my grandma has diabetes), it's a drink that I'd glad skip for sanity sake. Heck, I even avoid herbal teas, and tea infusions.

im also at my 36weeks of pregnancy...frm the first week up to yesterday i havent drink coffee even though i love coffee..i drink coffee but only half of cup just to ease the temptation. nothing much coffee just to stop the craving. i asked my doctor she says its ok to drink but a very low amount of coffee though so we are safe.
