Hi all,

I' m in 6th week of pregnancy. I feel that whatever i eat it' s not getting digested, so atlast for past 2 days I' ve been drinking sprite to help me little bit while going to bed. is it okay to take sprite as it contains no caffine? Please suggest.
zar replied. hi ive read ur concern abt not being able to drink liquids.well 1st of all please try to aviod aereated drinks during pregnancy.if u cant take juices, then have soups plenty of it. it will give taste as well as compensate for the liquids required. also it will give u strength. but th best is to drink water.have sip then after 5-10 mins ahve another sip.that way u wont feel the burden of having to gulp it all down.u can also eat juicy fruits like watermelon,mashmelon, etc.having 2 cups of tea wont help.while having anything just think one life is depending on u and u r responsible to provide it the best.eat not for urself but for ur baby.have milk without fail.make it a point to have yoghurt during ur meals.eat even if u dont feel like eating.ur good health means baby' s good health.believe me once u c ur healthy baby in ur arms u will 4get all this.u will 4get all the problems u faced.

my wishes with u.by the way when r u due?

good luck. mom replied. I am in 10 weeks and not able to drink since my 5 week. AS my dr. recommended, i am eating popsicals,apple juice.do not take any juice with acid because it does not settle well on your tummy.i can drink water when i am in bed, do not sit just raise your half body and drink. the new i found out that eat smoothies which is only ice and fruit. you can take your any fruit you like and blend it with ice. smootheis are great way to take fluid in because that way you are not drinking you are eating.
my dr. said if you are drink enough water,you have to hospital iv. so try to drink however you can drink.
i hope it will help. mom replied. hi, since i am not able to keep water down, i am drinking sprite at regular basis like half cup every day. i asked my dr. and she said its ok to have it.enjoy it.
