I get this strong urge for cold coke especially in this heat, second trimester. But everyone keeps saying cold drinks are bad for baby. Is having it once in a while really harmful?

Honestly the sugar in these drinks is what i would watch. With my GD i had to avoid them completely. For a normal pregnancy an odd sip is okay but dont make it regular.
An occasional cola is unlikely to harm, but it has caffeine and a lot of sugar, so its better not to make it a habit. Doctors usually advise limiting caffeine in pregnancy. If you crave it, just keep it occasional and ask your gynac about limits.
