maybe it is the deep brown richness of it
or the bitter sweetness
the smooth melting
warmth in a cup on a sleepless morn

whatever the reason...i crave cocoa (in a mug, in chocolate bar, in soy dream, you get the idea)...

but i have heard rumors that this is a no no while nursing.

is this true? why? thoughts? rants? withdrawal coping methods?

Thanks mamas!

well, if it's forbidden while nursing i guess i will be going to jail. i eat chocolate in some form every day. every day. i drink chocolate soy milk for breakfast, and sometimes have a brownie or piece of candy. sometimes several!
drink the cocoa. live a little. nursing isn't supposed to mean a life of ascetism for the mother.

Only if your baby is allergic to chocolate or extremely sensitive to caffeine!!!

I have chocolate everyday just about. I have since my son was born and now he's 11 mos and so far it hasn't seemed to bother him.

I have had Chocalote while BF. Although I don't really like chocolate. I couldn't tell that it bothered DS at all.
