I have exams coming up and I’m so tired being 23 weeks pregnant that I’ve been having lucozade. I’ve now read we shouldn’t have them, but it doesn’t say on the bottle that it’s not recommended for pregnant women. Can someone tell me if I’m OK to drink these? Already had a few over last few months as I have been avoiding energy drinks so worrying now.

It's the caffeine content I think I'd the main concern for the Lucozade. I would just make sure your under the recommended limit

Lucozade sport is what you want for an exam, not fizzy onesx

I drank these even in my first trimester it was the only thing I could keep down as long as your not having lots you be alright swear it changes all the time what you can and cannot have with them being fizzy they might start to give you heart burn but as long as your getting fluids down I use to have one a day because I started feeling I was getting dehydrated and with it being the only thing I could keep down you will be alright I promise it’s not like it’s alcohol some people drink alcohol and smoke so I was like so why can’t a treat my self to a lucozade

I literally LIVED on the pink one my whole trimester this pregnancy and my last, literally the only thing i could stomach and it gave me a little energy boost as well.
I never got told no so id say you will be fine.
I would drink anything like monster etc though.

I had a few during my pregnancy and I thought the same at the time. It doesn't sat anywhere on the bottle that it's not suitable. I avoided the "Hardcore" energy drinks. And like I said only had a handful of Lucozades. Everything was fine.

I think the sports ones are better in pregnancy because they’re caffeine free x

I’ve been drinking lucozade so much I was like oh sh*t!!! 🤣😂 but it looks like it’s absolutely fine lol xx
