okay so im 6 and half months pregnant...and the last couple days iv heard some things are really bad to do while pregnant....? why is sleeping on your back so bad while prego and u can only sleep on your left side...drinking diet coke or oj cuz of the acid can that affect the baby.....?

My doc said it was ok to bc you need to move around to keep circulation going. So sleep on one side for a little then the other and so on. She said you want stay on your back long enough for it to harm you or the baby. You just don't need to stay in one postion all night.

Its the fake sugar in diet coke that makes it a no-no.

Drinking soda or coffee in moderation is usually okay - but not diet drinks.

Or anyway,  that's what my OB says.  It has to do with some evidence of nervous system damage in the baby.
