What do you drink?

Pre-PG I was a diet soda junkie. I tried to cut caffeine out entirely, but am having a hard time. I drink some fruit juices, but it's hard to find 100% juice.

What do you drink? Do you allow yourself an occasional soda? If so, what kind, and how often? How about other drinks--ice tea, lemonade, etc?

Thanks--I'm a newbie!

Re: What do you drink?

I always drink water but I do drink the occasional diet soda...maybe 2/week. Last pregnancy i avoided all artificial sweeteners and caffiene but this time around I being a little bit more relaxed about it. I drink 1 cup of coffee most mornings (regular coffee)

Re: What do you drink?

I'm not a soda or coffee drinker so it wasn't really a problem for me - I DO like my diet snapple iced tea though, so I try to limit myself to 1 or 2x week b/c of the artificial sweetners .....

but my Dr. said 2 cups of caffiene a day was ok.

I dilute fruit juice, drink a lot of water, and my new obsession is peppermint tea.

Re: What do you drink?

i was a big soda junkie too. i gave it up.

I drink water and lemondade.

Re: What do you drink?

Water, mostly..I get so bored.

Diluted fruit juice, cranberry juice.

Sometimes caffiene free ice tea that I make very weak.

Other than that, I get very very bored. But then again, the reason I am getting bored is b/c I have increased my drinking only b/c I am pg. Normally I wasn't a big fan of drinking liquids and didn't have to force myself like I do now. I was never a soda person or a coffee person anyway...

Re: What do you drink?

I drink whatever I'm in the mood for. I am having my second cup of coffee as we "speak". I drink a diet coke if I want it, sprite, a ton of water, heck I've had a few Cold Coronas in the past 6 months too. Im down in NC so I love me some Sweet tea.

That being said, during the first tri, I had NO caffine at all. Just water. Drink what you want, MODERATION is key.

JMO of course! ***

Re: What do you drink?

I'm boring, all I drink is water and sometimes decaf tea. But I was pretty boring before PG as well all I had then was water and coffee.

I drinkly mostly water and the occasional juice or seltzer w/cranberrry.

Re: What do you drink?

i've been sticking to water, arizona iced tea (which by reading this thread may NOT be okay - so i'm currently freaking out) and once a day, but not every day, a Grape Fanta.

Re: What do you drink?

Water mostly of course. But juice here and there, lemonade, cranberry juice, cream soda every now and then, but regular, not diet...I'm trying to stay away from artificial sweeteners.

Re: What do you drink?

Mostly water. I drink ice tea at home, which I make decafinated. Once in a while OJ in the morning...

I was never a soda/juice drinker.

Once in a blue moon I'll have a regular iced tea if I'm out, but usually not. I haven't had caffine in such a long time that when I do, I don't feel well afterwards.

Re: What do you drink?

I drink my decaf coffee every morning, at home I drink Crytal Light ice tea & at work I drink water. Once in awhile I will have a cup of regular coffee.

Re: What do you drink?

I have one cup of regular coffee in the morning...water throughout the day...and Motts for Tots with dinner (it's juice with reduced sugar).

Re: What do you drink?

b4 PG I always had a ton of lemon water (fresh squeezed lemon) and a coffee every morning. I don't care for soda. I do get bored of water so once in a while I'll make myself an iced tea or something.

Re: What do you drink?

I mainly drink water.

I usually have a cup of decaf tea in the morning with breakfast and sometimes one in teh afternoon.

I also drink V8-Splash tropical flavored juice every once i a while because it is lowe rin sugar and caalories.

But for the most part its water water water....

Re: What do you drink?

I drink whatever I feel like drinking. I did it with my DS and I am doing it now.

I have my coffee in the morning and if I feel like another one at night. If I feel like a Coke with dinner, I have it.

Re: What do you drink?

I'm not a soda or coffee drinker so that wasn't really an issue. If I'm having a slice of pizza out or something I'll have a seltzer but mainly I drink water.

Re: What do you drink?

I have 1 cup of regular coffee a day and then decaf.

I never was a soda drinker so that wasn't a problem. I also drink water, homeade decaf Ice tea, seltzer, lemonade, and sometimes fruit juice.

I drink mostly water.....occasionally iced tea

I also drink alot of water with fresh lemon in it!! I will also have seltzer with cranberry juice in it.

Re: What do you drink?

I've been drinking mostly water, chocolate milk in the morning, and occasionally apple juice or coke. My doctor just said no alcohol; everything else is okay in moderation.

Re: What do you drink?

I was a HUGE caffine drinker...About 100+oz a day.....so now I have a cup of coffee in the morning and a can of coke later in the day. The rest of the time it's: water w/lemon, sprite, root beer, 7-Up, vernors, and Apple juice. I was told to stay away from lots of caffine, but that caffine free pop is ok as long as I have water.

Re: What do you drink?

I mainly drink just water.

I was never a big caffeine person though. Never drank coffee and almost never drank soda, and if I did it was usually sprite. So it isn't hard for me to give it up.

Re: What do you drink?

I drink water and milk. I don't like soda or coffee. I rarely have OJ, which is one of the only other drinks I like.

Re: What do you drink?

I also drink a lot of water, Gatorade, decaf tea, Dr. Brown's decaf cream soda....cranberry juice..I LOVED soda, but drank too much of it before I was pg, so I'm trying to be healthier!!!
