Fresh squeezed lemonade 🤤 too much vitamin c?

Question

I am craving lemonade like crazy, and I'm trying to up my water intake. I make a glass with a lemon and a couple tsp of sugar and it is *mwah* chefs kiss. 
However, I know too much vitamin C isn't great especially in the first trimester. My prenatal, juice I drink, and some of the food I eat also has a pretty good amount of vit C. Am I just being overly cautious or should I cut back on the citrus and vitamin C?

Answer

Your body won’t store more Vitamin C than it needs. You just pee out the excess because it’s water soluble. Lemons are highly acidic so be cautious of your teeth and the amount of sugar that’s in the lemonade.

Answer

You would have to take crazy excessive amounts of a vitamin c supplement in order for it to be potentially harmful to your pregnancy.  You really can’t overdo natural vitamin c and it’s good for strengthening your amniotic sack

Answer

Sounds overly cautious. I drank tons of lemonade with my first 🤤 it was my addiction lol

Answer

I would say just check in with doc and if they say it’s fine you’re good!! Also just note, I eat actual lemons lol So I think lemonade should be ok! And I’m talking like I slice them up like oranges and go to town!! It’s usually 3 lemons in one sitting too lol it was my craving my entire first trimester and I am now 18 weeks along. My doctor said that was perfectly ok just didn’t understand how I could take the sourness lol
