Soda, is it fine?

Question

I've been craving Coke, Pepsi & Dr Pepper lately. I feel really guilty though I quit coffee 5 months ago yet I'm having soda which is not fine .. should I stop ?

Answer

I drank it while pregnant, I drank coffee too, but just limit yourself.

Answer

It's all what you're comfortable with. Myself, I feel like though the risk may be small it personally isn't worth it to ME to have the caffeine. Though I do occasionally enjoy a coke. You should try root beer or other caffeine free sodas, if you're concerned.

Answer

I drink a few sodas a week. Dr said it's fine.

Answer

I have a half a can of Coke every once in a while just to satisfy the craving. I don't need a lot, just a taste lol it's not bad if you limit yourself

Answer

I drink sprite when I'm not in the mood for water .. I drink coke only when I feel nauseous & get a little dizzy from my long walks . Lately I've been drinking coffee too but I limit myself .. once in a while won't hurt

Answer

My OB with #1 told me it's ok in limited amounts but ideally, to avoid Coke as it has phosphoric acid which can aff cat calcium. She said sprite/ginger ale are better choices. Also it's better to drink regular as opposed to diet as they contain sweetners. And of course if it has caffeine, you should factor it in your daily caffeine consumption

Answer

It's fine. Having a soda every now and again  isn't going to be harmful. Drinking soda in general isn't healthy so I try to limit myself even more so now that I'm pregnant. It is one of my addictions though. I love soda and it's difficult for me to cut down on.

Answer

I only do 200mg of caffeine per day but I'm a diet coke drinker so I drink the caffeine free version!

Answer

I try to limit myself to only one 12oz a day!

Answer

Its perfectly fine every now and and then. Just make sure you also drink enough water as well. I remember at one stage soda was all I was drinking, but it's not good in excess. I now limit it to 2 a day max.
