When I was pregnant my ob/gyn told me to drink lots of lemonade. I'm not sure why but that's what she said.

I've heard the lemonade thing as well. There was a study done at a local hospital saying it was supposed to reduce nausea. I've been drinking ice water. It's tasted the best. The carbonation in pop has been making me throw up

Lemonade did help me with nausea when I was pregnant.

The only way that I can stomach lots of water is with plenty of fresh lemons. I highly recommend it. And while I am trying to stay away from all sodas, ginger ale has been getting through the worst of the nausea. There is a brand of soda's, Grown Up Soda (GuS), that makes less sweet and all natural sodas and they taste great.

mmm Lemonade. I've been craving it all through my pregnancy! Just recently it started giving me horrible heartburn though. I think the reasoning behind recommending lemonade is because it has a high carb/ml ratio, which is good! Also, the lemon in lemonade can help with your nausea.

I guess my baby is lucky, I loooovee water and milk. My favorite though used to be pepsi and coke, but now my tastes have changed and I find it tastes like dirt. So I pretty much stick to water, milk and tea. Juice makes me throw up =\

I had a big Subway fetish right away in pregnancy, and I would get HiC fruit punch and it always tasted like there was pepper in it. I had it again about two weeks ago, and it tasted like that again! yuck. my husband thought I was crazy
