    If I can count popsicles, you can count tonic.

    I have no idea how you can drink that stuff.  It reminds me of crazy nights in college and vodka.

    Tonic water contains Quinine which is contraindicated during pregnancy. It crosses the placenta and can cause deafness, I believe.

    I'm not sure of the deafness, but I was drinking a little bit during the first trimester (probably a liter) and I was warned not to drink anymore!! Quinine isn't really good for a fetus. It was helping with my morning sickness.

    Try selzer!
