soda

[andreaalei]

I heard its a bad idea to drink soda/pop while pregnant .. is that true ? If so , why ?

[babydue07182013]

I still drink soda. But I limit myself to only one a day. And the rest of the time is water

[katngary143]

I have a soda or an iced tea a day and then the rest water...I mean im pretty far into my pregnancy and I try not drink alot of caffeine stuff bc ny baby moves sooo much and it hurts lol !! But sometimes I cant help myself and have a soda lol

@bri We say pop in Indiana too lol.
But yeah I have one or two cans a day. Just limit yourself. Before I got pregnant pop was all I ever drank. Cutting back wasn't so bad after I got  through the withdrawals lol.

I have a soda a day and drink lots of tea.. no coffee for me but soda is perfectly fine to drink as long as its not too much. I have been drinking soda for awhile and have to have at least a cup a day due to getting bad head aches from caffeine withdrawals.I think it differs with each person just depends on everyone's beliefs and what they think :)

Are you from Chicago? That's the only place I know ppl say pop.

I drink caffeine free coke in moderation. But in the first trimester caffeine free coke was the only thing that kept me alive!!! Lol I drank it alllll the time!

I have a soda or a cup of coffee per day, sometimes both, it's not a big deal, don't stress, most are precautions, your not gonna die and your baby will be fine, they say don't eat lunch meat, fish, caffeine, don't tan, don't dye hair, don't drink wine, bla bla bla, just as long as its in moderation your baby won't be harmed, for the first like 4 months I craved turkey sandwiches and I ate them, and everyone I know who has kids has done the same and everyone is fine. Moderation is key for everything

I drink it all the time.... Lol I was just told to get caffeine free and also drink water after every pop. You can have caffeine you just have to stay at the limit your doctor gives you

Moderation

[AHHHpenguins]

I have maybe one or two cans of soda a day. The rest is tons of water. Is perfectly fine to have a little :)

[violetmoonbean]

I was told to limit caffeine to one serving a day. I used to drink a cup of coffee in the morning. Now it doesnt even sound good anymore and Im not that upset. :-/

[kylamclellan]

The caffeine in it.. Plus it's high in sugar and bad calories. It's okay to drink in moderation (for example ill have a pop when i go to the movies)

[Mrs_teddy_bear]

They say it is bad because of the caffeine in the soda. That is also way they say you should stay away from coffee.
