Answer

With my 3rd baby during the anatomy scan they thought he had an irregular heart beat so they sent me to a specialist who only does ultrasounds on baby’s heart and nothing else, and I told them I drink one cup of coffee every day plus a 12oz can of soda and they weren’t worried at all. They said that was perfectly ok and my baby ended up having absolutely nothing wrong with his heart. He’s 9 months old now and doing just fine. I’m also pregnant again with baby number 4 and haven’t changed anything as far as my one cup of coffee a day plus my 12oz can of soda and I’m 30 weeks along right now and my 20 week anatomy scan was perfect.

Answer
