Energy drinks?

Question

I've been having hellish cravings for energy drinks lately. Before I was pregnant I would drink 2-3 a day.
I'm in my second trimester now and I haven't touched one since we found out I was pregnant, but the cravings are getting to me.
Have any other moms cheated and had an energy drink during their pregnancy?

Answer

its not the caffeine you have to worry about when it comes to energy drinks. its all the other shit they put it in. they're so bad for you even without being pregnant... idk why you would want to put that in your system while being pregnant. I'd stay far away from them but do whatever.

Answer

my Dr said to Google the additional ingredients. my love of Monster energy made me ask. she looked it up and said that it's fine. one whole can is like 160mg so if I do drink it, I can't really have anything but water after that so it's up to you. but like I said make sure you look up the ingredients first. some of the herbs are bad during pregnancy

Answer

drink the v8 energy drinks. be sure to stay under the 200-250mg of caffeine a day limit  though.

Answer

An 8oz Red Bull has 80mg of caffeine which is just under half the recommend caffeine limit for pregnant women 😁 I’m not sure about other brands cause I don’t like them with this baby, but my dr. Said it was ok as long as I stayed hydrated.

Answer

there's a certain caffine intake thafs okay during pregnancy and a whole energy drink probably exceeds that limit so I would drink whatever amount is equivalent if that makes sense.
