Caffeine Content of Popular Drinks

I've been wondering how much caffeine was in Dr. Pepper, and it's not that bad. They say that a pregnant person should stay below about 200mg a day. Dr. Pepper has only 41mg, so I don't have to worry about totally cutting it out. :):)
MANNN, coffee has a TON, no wonder I'm wired whenever I have any. I'm not a regular coffee drinker, except for specialty drinks when I'm out, I bet those have a LOAD of caffeine in them. LOL.

I'm noticing that some of the diet pops have more caffeine than the regular. I wonder why.
