I'm really craving a cold Thums Up these days, especially with the heat. Is it okay for me to drink Thums Up during pregnancy, or should I avoid aerated drinks completely? I'm trying to be careful.
My mother used to say we should avoid artificial carbonated drinks completely during these months. When I asked my doctor, she also said the high sugar and caffeine aren't good for the baby. It's safer to stick to homemade fruit juices.
Oh god, the acidity after Thums Up is real! I had a few sips during my pregnancy because of extreme cravings, but honestly, it is not worth the gas issues later. Better to avoid it unless u want to stay awake all night with heartburn, haha.
I completely understand how intense these cravings can get and how hard it is to restrict yourself. But Thums Up has a lot of caffeine which might trigger anxiety and acidity. Please check with your gynac once if you really can't resist, but trying to avoid it is best.
Yaar, actually it is better to avoid it because of the high caffeine and sugar content. I know the cravings are real, but maybe just take a tiny sip from your husband's glass to satisfy your tongue instead of drinking a whole bottle!
Haan na, cold drinks craving is so common in pregnancy! But honestly, Thums Up has too much gas and caffeine, which isn't great for the baby. Try drinking fresh coconut water or nimbu paani instead, it feels much better.
