1st Trimester

powerade

For the first 12 weeks I have drank powerade every morning and sometimes at night because water has just nauseated me. I know water is a better choice and sports drinks have a lot of sugar in them, but sometimes I just cannot drink as much water because of the m/s. ?Anyone else having similar issues?

Re: powerade

  • I can't drink water these days or even kool-aid.  I'm sticking with skim milk and apple juice. 

    I imagine that Powerade is better than nothing!

  • Yes, I can't keep plain water down!  As soon as it hits my tummy it wants to come back up, especially on an empty tummy!

    Apple juice sounds really good! I might have to try that.?

  • i've been doing apple juice too! Mots for Tots has wayyyyyy less sugar, but still tastes ok. 

    And powerade is like when you are sick - water is ALWAYS best, but hey, if you can keep down powerade, its just as effective.

  • Try occasional low sodium soups - I have a hard time drinking liquids in between meals so at least this helps keep me hydrated.
  • I just can't drink a lot of water because I don't like it so I have been drinking Gatorade every once in a while.
  • I am so happy that other people are doing the same thing.. the thought of water gets me sick and it just doesnt want to stay down.. i drink gatorade.. before pregnancy i thought it was gross.. not i love it.. weird!
