See your doctor : Usually one bottle of soda or coke a day has at least 12 sugar cubes in it. And coke is loaded with caffeine. Some other types of sodas have bromide in it. So this isn't best for the nutrition of the baby's developing nervous and organ systems.Your ob/gyn can probably recommend a clinical nutritionist, who can help you with your dietary cravings. Your doctor may want to see your glucose level.
