I really wanted to stay away from soda while prego..But lately I've been craving it.
Anyone else have this issue? What is a safe amount to drink a day?

Oohh I love soda. My problem is water. It seem that I cant drink it..always had problem with drinking water because it can make me nauseated normaly. Can drink alot of soda tough. Remamber with my first preggy I loves fanta orange, and that is one of the sodas I hate. Dont like the smell or taste but in my preggy I drank alot of it and one day when we ate from subway I almost trew up of taking a sip of fanta..woww amazing how pregg can change so much:)

With my second daughter I craved soda and pineapples..... Through my whole pregnancy.... And I drank a lot of soda my baby came out fine.... All these people are scared to eat this or eat that and I'm sure some things could hurt your baby but sodais ddefinitely not one of them....

I don't drink anymore than 2 a day. Technically you can have up to 200 mg of caffine per day. Sodas have approx 30mg per can. It's all the sugar that no so healthy , but anything in moderation is ok :)

I crave soda all the time, just make sure it's light soda not dark and if it is dark only 1 can a day
but if it's light, drink what you crave don't over do it
