I am starting to think that caffeine is more of a recall booster than a lucid trigger. Perhaps my successes were just helping me recall the lucids I was already having? Probably not but it's something to consider.

In any event, I would say this morning's results were tainted. Our son woke us multiple times all night so I am unsure of any effects the caffeine stack had. I was awoken 45min after dose with no recall and had slight insomnia for about 30min. I recall one really vivid dream around 5:19 but that was between alarms. This was the last of my caffeine pills so next time I will see if a more natural form of caffeine makes any difference.

As far as the taurine... I am not sure if it helped anything or not. I'll it by itself and at a higher does some night soon.

A choline supplement may be a good thing here too as it should give a higher percentage of chance to be dreaming when the caffeine peeks. It seems I may have been in nREM when I woke up after the initial dose (though I have continued sleeping if I had not been disturbed)

Now if I could ever get a solid night without being woken up a hundred times, I may be able to get this thing figured out.
