moderation!

Too much sugar feeding the thrush from the sounds of it.

Eat lots of bio yoghurt to balance it out.

I have been a juice addict through my pregnancy but mainly the very yummy cranberry and raspberry from Ocean Spray.

I could drink one carton a day so had to force myself to slow it down.

Oh, god, I've been necking citrus juice since I got pregnant, and while I don't have any symptoms, a urine sample picked up mild thrush - I never made the connection with the juice addiction! Thanks, HPonEverything - this has been a very useful piece of information, and something I wouldn't have worked out for myself. (There I was, priding myself on my major craving being actually comparatively healthy. Duh.)

The things our body does to us in pregnancy!

Everytime I try to be good and drink juice I feel horribly nauseated after (I am 29 weeks)...so I've had to give up too!

Ohhh, i don't know what i would do if tis happened to me.

Already had to give up pizza as i was sick everytime i have it. I still really want it though!!!

Innocent I have had to give up pizza too, just makes me vomit which is strange. I have been necking loads of apple juice - good or bad for me???

Probably the melted cheese or something on it, or the amount of grease or whatever, but it even happens with homemade pizza.

Apple juice has to be good and it isn't too acidic compared to orange juice so it shouldn't make you feel ill.

Duh, I think that is totally my problem! I usually avoid all fruit juices as they are so high in sugar but have incorporated orange juice into my diet to take with my iron tablets (vitamin c helps them absorb); thinking back I have been trying to get rid of a similar problem for about a month which is perfectly in sync with when I started downing OJ 3x's a time. Thanks for the post, I hope it helps me as well!

that's so funny - I'm 21 weeks and have been crazing orange juice, but everytime I drink some my heartburn gets much worse. I can't believe something so innocuous could be so, well evil

It's getting so there's very little I like that I actually CAN drink.
No alcohol, no coke, no tea and now no orange juice I love Appletise but the sugar content is sky high and it costs a fortune.

If they start saying pregnant women should lay off milk I don't know what I'll do - induce myself probably!

mmmm milk, I drink about 3 pints in the evening but has to be REALLY cold. I seem to drink a lot at the mo!

HPonEverything - if you love Appletise mix half apple juice (just the stuff from concentrate) with half sparkling water. It is a reasonable approximation, not so sugary, and a heck of a lot cheaper.

As some forward planning for post birth - if you breastfeed, citrus juices aren't ideal then in big quantities either in my experience.
