she's praying that mom will forgive her for being awake practically six days straight and is now making up for it by sleeping for an entire day today!
12/2/06 - Okay, so I'm reading this magazine article last night that talks about caffeine/coffee and says that caffeine has a half-life of about 100 hours in newborns (drops to 14 hours by 3 to 5 months old). I'm thinking about that for a minute and realize I had a cup of coffee last Thursday after Thanksgiving dinner -- SO, it could have been MY OWN FAULT she was awake so much!!!! Sheesh.
Caffeine source / Typical milligrams of caffeine
Brewed coffee (1 cup) / 85
Instant coffee (1 cup) / 75
Decaffeinated coffee (1 cup) / 3
Caffeinated iced tea (1 cup) / 40
Caffeinated hot tea (1 cup) / 60
Caffeinated soft drinks (12 ounces) / 30 to 60
Semisweet dark chocolate (1 ounce) / 20
What a sweet Angel!
