I guess it's in the same line of using vingar for the same thing. Aren't you all pleased we live in a modern society where contraceptive is realtively easy to obtain if its needed/wanted.

As for the whole caffine thing its an excess of caffine rathers than just caffine on its own that increases the chances of m/c so just cut back and remember its in chocolate too.]]> Mon, 06 Oct 2008 14:49:52 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=21453&PID=510170&title=coke-diet-coke-proven-contraception#510170 <![CDATA[Coke & Diet coke proven contraception : ooh, fizzy! ]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=21453&PID=509839&title=coke-diet-coke-proven-contraception#509839 Author: BugTeeny

Good question...!? The mind boggles.

 

According to the new scientist article it was a method used during the 60s/70s (the era of free love when contraception was hard to come by).  It's a bit of a folklore tale and the scientist wanted to prove or disprove it. 

They did a controlled test tube experiment.  Apparently diet coke works better than normal coke but because sperm can shoot through your cervix in a matter of seconds it's probably doesn't work as well IRL because you're not going to be able to get the diet coke up there fast enough before the quick swimmers speed up the vagina (just incase anyone was thinking of trying this method at home).

Yea, I think they are... this website gives a few more details.

I've knocked diet coke on the head because of the caffeine, but I wouldn't worry too much about it ]]> Mon, 06 Oct 2008 07:35:46 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=21453&PID=509695&title=coke-diet-coke-proven-contraception#509695 <![CDATA[Coke & Diet coke proven contraception : Aren&#039;t they talking about...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=21453&PID=509689&title=coke-diet-coke-proven-contraception#509689 Author: JadeC

I'll have to drag out the paper that I didn't get a chance to read yesterday. I drink a lot of diet coke and it did take a while to conceive the gremlins, but I didn't cut back and managed to get pregnant very accidentally with Chiara. I don't drink it while I'm pregnant coz it makes the hyperemesis worse.]]> Sun, 05 Oct 2008 22:31:44 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=21453&PID=509662&title=coke-diet-coke-proven-contraception#509662 <![CDATA[Coke & Diet coke proven contraception : I only drink coke once maybe twice...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=21453&PID=509632&title=coke-diet-coke-proven-contraception#509632 Author: WestiesGirl

I only drink coke once maybe twice a week and never drink diet coke so doesnt really affect me as such.

i havent read it(dont have a paper) but i drank a lot of caffiene and still got pregnant twice very quickly though i drank very little during pregnancy after being paranoid bout the miscarriage.. you'd have to have over the equivalent of i think 3 cups of coffee a day for that to happen though...i had absolutely no drinks with artifical sweetener in them though...planning to ttc soon and planning to cut down a little but not stop. ]]> Sun, 05 Oct 2008 17:08:18 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=21453&PID=509425&title=coke-diet-coke-proven-contraception#509425 <![CDATA[Coke & Diet coke proven contraception : yip heard that one it&#039;s all...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=21453&PID=509392&title=coke-diet-coke-proven-contraception#509392 Author: LJsmum

This weekends herald, in section A is an article about scientists proving that coke and diet coke affect fertility, maybe read it to get all the facts but very interesting!

Anyway just thought everyone TTC might be interested!!
