Evening, mommas-to-be. I am 10 weeks pregnant with my second, and I'm in a drink rut. I don't drink sodas (and I'm limiting my ice tea intake), and water is starting to get old fast. Anyone else have this issue? What are you drinking to mix things up?

babymakes9 · July 2017

I'm drinking sprite with oj, o.j., milk, chocolate milk, and Gatorades.

kbiala · July 2017

I've been doing flavored sparkling water to change it up and add a little carbonation.

smorzandoj · July 2017

Maybe try infusing your water with fruit. It's not half bad.

Starynightsky24 · July 2017

Mixing fruit in my water is usually as exciting as I get lol! But I do make smoothies and such such help change it up

Manders71208 · July 2017

I totally forgot about infusing water! I did that last summer and hadn't even thought to try that! And OJ and sprite sounds fun! Thanks, everyone!

Ginger beer (not alcoholic) had been a nice change. I kicked the soda habit a while ago but treat this like a cocktail now when we're out with friends, just to have something special.

Low sugar apple juice has been calming for my tummy. Usually get the honest company juice pouches (on sale). If you infuse water, try pineapple and strawberry! Have had a few vitamin waters too for sweetness.

I've been drinking flavored seltzer water as well. I recently bought elderflower lemonade from Whole Foods. It is a pretty bottle! It's a tad sweet, but I mix it with seltzer. I also do smoothies in the morning for breakfast.

Drinking just water gets old pretty fast!

Flavored seltzer water, sometimes with a splash of juice. I'll sometimes add a few pieces of fruit and put the drink in a stemless wine glass. Also, virgin moscow mules when I feel like having something special.

I had a sparkling lemonade at dinner Saturday night because I was jealous of my husband's beer. It was really good! I don't drink full-sugar sodas, so I've been having diet ginger ale and G2, and Vitamin Water Zero. Plus lots of water to limit the artificial sweeteners.

I've been on a lemonade kick lately. Making it at home a lot too, so I know exactly what's in it.

julievdm12 · July 2017

I drink a lot of Perrier and every so often when I get a craving for a beer my grocery store carries non-alcoholic lemonade Radler's. They're basically lemonade flavoured nonalcoholic beer. As long as they are super ice cold they almost help me feel like I'm enjoying a beer.

lainikins · July 2017

I am right there with you. I am so tired of water. I do not like carbonation, so no soda or seltzer for me. I have been drinking a lot of lemonade. Also caffeine free iced tea mix and the water flavoring drop things. I also made myself some jello as a way to help get liquids.

I've been drinking those too! Are you in Canada? I get the PC brand.

EmmyMommy123 · July 2017

@starla Ok where in Canada are you to get non alcoholic flavoured beer!? I want some!!! I'm in Manitoba where our liquor stores are separate from grocery stores, and admittedly I haven't been shopping in a liquor store for a while haha

starla · July 2017

@EmmyMommy123 I'm in Ontario. Some grocery stores just started selling booze, but this is just in the regular N/A soft drinks section.

MrsJ2410 · July 2017

I got this electrolyte tab called Nuun at Whole Foods, you just add to water and they have a bunch of good flavors and they don't seem to have anything bad in them. They have them on amazon as well. Also they fizz!

sabriel1 · July 2017

@EmmyMommy123 my province is pretty strict on alcohol too but the local superstore (Loblaws) carries the non alcoholic flavored beers

rainafire77 · July 2017

I've been mixing fruit juice with my water like limeaide or lemonade or fruit punch. With get the Simply fruit juices and they're tasty.

alice0218 · July 2017

I still drink a lot of water but I also like LaCroix sparkling waters, 50/50 juice water mix, water with a skirt of those water enhancers, unsweetened iced tea, etc. We met friends out for drinks this weekend and I had lemonade mixed with club soda, mostly club soda though. I don't like drinking too much sugar. I try to keep that lower. I'd rather eat a cookie than drink a whole glass of juice.

EmmyMommy123 · July 2017

@starla @sabriel1 thanks I'll check my superstore! This would be awesome as one of my strongest cravings is beer and everyone has told me the non alcoholic are not worth it!

starla · August 2017

@EmmyMommy123 It's definitely not as good as alcoholic beer. However I've gotten used to it and it's good if you can put a splash of lemonade or grapefruit juice in it (or find the raddled). When I have a sip of DH's beer now it tastes so strong and bitter to me! Also, having it super cold helps. I put beer mugs in the freezer.

soulcupcake · August 2017

I pretty much just drink water, LaCroix and occasionally unsweetened iced tea. I also love passion tango herbal tea from Starbucks.

EmmyMommy123 · August 2017

@starla @sabriel1 I found the lemonade radler and am currently sipping it at the lake. Thank you, I am happy!!

Yes I am! PC brand rocks.
And when I said Perrier, I actually meant PC Blue menu sparkling water. Lol

Yes, super cold is a must!

alemarie1 · August 2017

I'm late to this thread but I love seltzer water, dezani and polar bands are the best. read the labels of store brands because sometimes they sneak in aspartame. When I go out to eat I get plain old soda water with lemon..

lucylou214 · August 2017

I drink a lot of water and lemon water, but when I want something with more flavor, I love to splash juice in seltzer water (I only drink seltzer/sparkling without sweeteners). The POM blueberry pomegranate is so good, and I recently discovered while out to dinner that soda water with pineapple juice and a splash of cranberry juice is yummy, too!

evenstar1985 · August 2017

Club soda with lime and mint is really good -- kind of tastes like a (virgin, sadly) mojito
