Gatorade and constipation

Can I drink Gatorade while pregnant? I've been sick the past few days and feeling like total crap chills, muscle aches, stomach aches, and throat aches. The only thing I haven't experienced is a fever, but I have a feeling that's coming next. I drank a Gatorade yesterday because I was told it'd help with my throat and I've pooped a few times since then. Is that normal? considering this pregnancy has me past constipated. Can I continue to drink it or is it bad for baby? Also I drink plenty of water it doesn't help with my constipation.
