    Can you get him to consider Splenda, erythritol, xylitol or Stevia instead? I think aspartame is pretty unhealthy....though I know it's in 99% of SF products,

    My Ovulation Chart
    currently TTC, Cycle #16 since last BFP

    TTC #1 - swaying pink on & off since Nov 2013 - hoping for a girl first but excited for either!

    Dec 2001 - May 2006 : 5 early abortions of healthy singletons (3 medical @5w, 2 surgical @8w, last 4 pregnancies conceived with late DH, all conceived while TTA/on birth control)
    Mar 2012: miscarried B/G twins @5w (conceived 2 cycles after remověng Paraguard copper IUD while NTNP), one twin was ovarian ectopic

    Me: 34, widowed, late O + short LP, normal-good hormone levels excepting undetectable testosterone, seeking a known sperm donor/life partner
    My sway: vegetarian LE for over 28w, skipping breakfast, fibre (ground psyllium husks) with/before/between meals, physically inactive, drama avoidance, ocassional minimal YesBaby lube as needed, alternate cycles on low dose Clomid, double shot lattes (with meals)
    Past sway tactics I've dropped (in order): Vitex, Sudafed, antihistamines, intermittent fasting, one attempt per cycle at positive OPK, one attempt in fertile period

    My husband has been drinking energy drinks since 06. We had 2 girls and 2 boys.

I think about a third but ill check next time I'm out. 99% of the energy drinks have less than 100mg per container, and I recall American drinks being similar, but is HAS been 4 years. I really need to go back!
    They are SO disgusting. They taste like urinal cakes (not that I tasted urinal cakes, but just that air freshener-y smell) BLECH!! He would drink one and come in for a smooch and I was just like "Oh God No".

    LOL they really are immensely foul. How can they have so many different flavours but they are all horrible? I hate the original Red Bull flavour too. It's so artificial-chemical. I've never met a man who minds the taste of energy drinks much if at all, but most women seem much more discerning...
