Sweet and Low sugar

July 11, 2008

I have seen on the internet that drinking alot of the sweet and low sugar in the pink pack is bad for a pregnant woman. Is this true? Can a pregnant woman not drink any type of artificial sugar?

Its not great for you and some docs will say to stay away from it. Its better to drink water, juice and milk while preggo. Splenda is soemthing that has been said to be "safe" while preggo so that is a better choice but still wouldnt drink too much of it.

I think there are a few postings on this subject on this site. Try "aspertine" as a search word

My understanding is that you should limit it as much as possible...but a diet sode or something every once in a while probably isn't that bad for you??

i lived on diet soda and coffee before ttc and when going thru everything i limited myself to 1 cup of coffee and 1 diet soda a day. Doc said that was way fine and just not to go over 300mg of caffiene a day. :)
