But lizard, Did your parents put it in your baby bottle, like some of the parents from that area do? That's sad. That way you can get addicted and ........

it doesn't even have to be mountain dew that you put in your baby's bottle!
plain milk and fruit juice, which are usually healthy foods, can cause horrible decay in a baby's mouth if a parent give it to them in a bottle when they go to sleep.
the baby's teeth are bathed in fruit and milk sugars all night, causing the decay.
drinking mountain dew and other sugary things during the day usually causes no damage, because you drink water in between or brush your teeth before bed and in the morning.
NEVER give a baby a bottle filled with anything (i would say even water!)at night so they suck on it whenever they break through their sleep.

and all that caffeine doesnt affect your epilepsy?
I drink a can of mountain dew, or anything with a bunch of caffeine and it makes my head hurts so bad all day
I dont know, but I think most people visiting this board for there neuro problems probably should avoid the Dew, not so much for teeth, but for the brain ;):p:D

The BF drinks it once in a while, I always call it Mountain Goo. Never liked the stuff.
I never put my babies to bed with bottles.

No, it never did. (I'm off of it now, per anti-yeast treatment protocol.) I have a distinct pattern with my SP szs. They occur with weather changes, specifically season change.
