Drinking Caffeinated Sodas While Pregnant

Drinking Caffeinated Sodas When it comes to caffeinated sodas during pregnancy, medical opinions vary widely. Some doctors encourage their patients to limit or cut out caffeine while others suggest that moderate caffeine use will do no harm. The reason for such differing opinions is largely because studies have been somewhat inconclusive. There are studies that show a link between birth defects and caffeine usage, but these studies failed to consider the tobacco and alcohol usage of the participants involved.

Most doctors will agree, however, that it is wise to drink fewer caffeinated sodas because they can rob the body of essential nutrients such as iron and calcium. These are especially important to a pregnant woman who needs more vitamins and minerals than normal to support her own body and the growth of her unborn child.
