Hi Chandra - congratulations on becoming a Mom!

I'm not a health care professional, but I've read many different theories on caffine. The current main school of thought is that caffine is ok for a nursing Mom to have in her diet in small amounts, and it doesn't affect baby (personally I would disagree - if nicotine and other food ingredients get through to baby, I would think that caffine does as well) As for sugar, I haven't read much on that.

BTW... My daughter, Alexandra, had the same sleep habits as your child. Then she started sleeping fewer hours at night - started waking early in the morning. I'm working on extending her nap time, and her night time sleep. She's too crabby at the end of the day when she doesn't get good naps, and it affects how she sleeps at night.

Best of luck!
