I felt so wired which I kind of expected. Anyway, last night all night I was on edge, I couldn't yawn properly and felt like if someone had startled me I would have had a heart attack. I couldn't sleep at all and still feel sick to my stomach and jittery. Obviously I'm not going to be having any more coffee but I've had it before and not gotten that wired.

I think sometimes it depends on the brand of coffee or the fact they didn't clean out the coffee maker well enough. There are bad oils in cheap coffee, plus bacteria that grows in pots that are not cleaned. Both my DH and I are spoiled and always get either Starbucks or organic french roast. The cheap crystal kind that our offices buy have always made us both sick, both jittery and poopy!! I try to avoid it. -------------------- Rae SAHM to Wil (4) and Wesley (2) ~ Wife to Richard 10/20/01

I also have to say....I don't think Starbucks tastes any better than a cup of Folgers. Not sure what all the fuss is about.... -------------------- Jeanie - SAHM to Kristen 13, Cade 12, Conner 8, Keegan 3

And thought maybe that's why you were feeling bad...JMO -------------------- Rae SAHM to Wil (4) and Wesley (2) ~ Wife to Richard 10/20/01

I use Eight O'Clock Bokar coffee... It makes a very rich, full flavored cup of coffee and never leaves me feeling jittery or strung up. I've had other good ones too, that's just the most reasonable I can think of that is very good. I only buy whole bean and grind my own just before brewing. I think that makes a big difference in both taste and consistency too. And my poor Lisa just plain can't drink any kind of coffee... poor baby -------------------- Ed is husband to Lisa (since 1983) Dad to Ricky, John, Erin and Kaitlin The Administrators of the Parenting Club take trolls and violators of the Terms of Service Agreement seriously.

Now that I`m pregnant, I only drink one cup in the morning, about 3 times a week.... I don`t need it.... and one cup of tea in the evening is good for me. I like the tea just to set a routine to relax. I had problems breastfeeding my 2 others...and I plan to give it a good try this time around.... trying to find what relaxes me best NOW. Tea seems to be working for me... as for coffee - I buy the cheap stuff. No name brand. Funny - the only coffee that doesn`t give me the runs.... are the no name brand at the grocery store, and Tim Horton`s coffee.... I could drink french roast, starbucks, second cup....ground, instant.... they all make me go. -------------------- The richest people don't have the best of everything, they make the best of everything.
