Chocolate

[Holland56]

Ok, I’m pregnant, I LOVE chocolate. I have no caffeine at all apart from in chocolate… but does anyone know how much is too much?

I’m not talking about boring dark chocolate, I mean Belgian chocolate, Cadbury, galaxy yummmmmm’ how much is too much??!

More than you could eat without being sick. Quick google suggests a kilo of milk chocolate would be within the daily limit of caffeine.

AMAZING! I’m going to buy some Easter eggs!

Oops, did my conversions wrong. 10kg.

50g bar of chocolate has 10mg caffeine and your limit is 200mg according to nhs (or 300mg according to WHO).
Crack on.

No, sorry. One kilo 😂 it had changed to chocolate milk when I changed the quantity.

😂😂 chocolate for meee!

I ate a ton of chocolate throughout my pregnancy. It's fine.

You have made me laugh haha. So excited! I’ve only just started being able to eat small amounts because I’ve got terrible hyperemesis, the first thing that I really wanted today was an Easter eggs and mini eggs, DH went straight out and got me some hehe!

I drank the odd coffee and as much Diet Coke, cups of tea and chocolate as I wanted throughout all my pregnancies with no problems. An Easter egg is not going to do anything bad.

Did somebody say Easter eggs?

I wouldn’t eat too much because I may show up in your urine when you go for your checks - the sugar, not the chocolate of course - if there’s too much in your urine they make you test for pregnancy diabetes. The test involves not eating for a significant amount of time beforehand, I can’t remember how long it was but I was starving and ill tempered! Not fun to do. This was after scoffing too much chocolate at easter…
