Pregnancy is hard work. Anyone who says it isn’t is lying. Don’t get me wrong… it is amazing and wonderful and miraculous, but nonetheless, it is tough on a woman (and her spouse!).

And through the 10 months of morning sickness, fatigue, and other ailments, there is little you can do to make yourself feel better. The one thing I had that made my day at work just a teensy bit more manageable was a cup of coffee or a crisp new can of soda… And now they take that away, too! Ugh.

Yesterday, a new study came out recommending that pregnant women, especially in the first months of pregnancy, avoid caffeine all together. Say it ain’t so.

I’m not sure if we’ll even have any more children, but the thought of having to give up my morning juice hurts. It really hurts.
