I stopped drinking caffeinated coffee 15 months ago because I was tired of the headaches I would get if I didn&#8217;t have the exactly perfect amount of caffeine at the exact right minute of the morning.

I stuck to decaf coffee pods.  For about, oh, 4 days.  Then, after a particularly bad night dealing with a non-sleeping baby, I put in a regular pod.  (Oh, just once won&#8217;t hurt.)  The next week, I did it twice.  Then the next week I had regular coffee every morning.<\/p>\n<p>And ever since then, I&#8217;ve had awful, awful headaches that no amount of advil or tylenol can cure.<\/p>\n<p>So this morning, I quit caffeine cold-turkey.  I didn&#8217;t even have decaf coffee lest I be tempted &#8211; or in my sleep-deprived state simply put in a regular pod thinking it was decaf.  And, of course, I now have the headache to end all headaches.
