What do you drink while PG?

luvlieK · July 2010

I seriously need another drink. All I have left right now is water. (I drink milk and juice but not to fill the day, if ykwim)

I don't drink soda, I won't drink caffeine while pg, which means my favorite drink is not an option. Decaf tea just doesn't cut it.

I was thinking about the new "natural" Crystal Lite. But I am not so sure about stevia.

So what do you drink?

I've been drinking lots and lots of lemonade.

Joes_love · July 2010

i've been living on lemonade...but that's b/c right now water makes me nauseous.

i'll drink iced tea too, but i guess that has caffeine so it would be out for you?

Once I was able to keep anything down (um, 22ish weeks!), I drank Simply Raspberry Lemonade like it was going out of style. I mean, like a jug a day.

Seltzer w/ a splash of juice or with fresh fruit.

What about a naturally caffeine free tea? You could do it hot or iced. (Duh, NM. Just saw your tea disclaimer!)

I have been known to grab a sprite

luvlieK · July 2010

I live on iced tea normally, but won't drink it now ( And decaf is making me nauseous? who knows why. I made dh dump it.

I loved Nantucket Nectar lemonade last time. This time lemonade can be an enemy. boo

mostly water, and then tea.. i love tea

danaann78 · July 2010

Flavored seltzer was a big staple my first time around. I probably drank a liter a day in addition to OJ, milk and water w/ lemon.

Soyager · July 2010

Flavored seltzer
Seltzer mixed with juice-yum!
Kombucha
Raspberry tea to tone the ute.

Zista · July 2010

I would cut different juices with sparkling water. Also Perrier makes a great flavored selzer, no sugar/sweeteners added.

swimming47 · July 2010

Flavored seltzer, 1/2 water with 1/2 cranberry juice. Last time I loved lemonade but it is an enemy this time around

CABunny · July 2010

Water with lemon or 7Up.

smurfetteinred · July 2010

Be careful drinking too much seltzer. Club sodas have sodium and if it's your main drink that's a lot of extra sodium on a pregnant womans body. I was a huge fan of Perrier with lemon when water made me nauseous

AlishaRichelle · July 2010

Honeybush Blackberry Rooibos Tea - Iced... my fave. No help though if you don't like teas without caffeine.

If you haven't tried a rooibos, though, you should!

Mystery2B · July 2010

I drank sparkling water with a dash of OJ or lemon, cranberry and selzer (1/4 juice and 3/4 sparkling water), hot chocolate (come fall).

lol good to know. But seltzer makes me want to vomit not pg, so I can't even imagine now ;o)

Ugh I think I am stuck with just water. This is not a way to live! lol

littleanomaly · July 2010

A couple buckets of ice water, tea (I know, the decaf sucks, but I can't live without tea) root beer (already caf-free), caf-free coke, milk (but it has to be whole and it has to be on the verge of freezing), and orange juice or lemonade. I love simply lemonade.

ETA: ginger ale and I second the rec for rooibus tea. I like peach rooibus from Teavana. Actually I like pretty much anything from teavana, even the caf-free. They have a great lemon green tea and it's soooo tasty iced.

emsrdh03 · July 2010

Usually just water...sometimes with lemon to "spice" things up. I've picked up a few of the Sobe Life Waters recently and they're pretty good too. Zero calories....zero artificial sweeteners.

CeltiCutie · July 2010

I drank a lot of OJ mixed w/ gingerale. (pregnant woman's mimosa as I call it...) & Strawberry Lemonade and I think I drank Green Tea. I can't remember.

babyluv617 · July 2010

Just water, but that's what I normally drink.

this definitely! :-)

BFab11 · July 2010

Lemonade, Kool-aid, Slurpees/Icees...

I craved milk while pg; I went through 2 gallons a week by myself. Sadly, now I can't have any because DS is allergic I really miss my chocolate milk.

roundtheworldgirl · July 2010

I love iced tea. I make big pitchers of mint iced tea in the summer. If doing it with decaf that makes you sick though, how about flavored water?. While pg with DD, I made pitchers of water with lime juice and bruised mint - very refreshing on a hot day.
