My mom and sister said it was bad b/c of the vitamin C, but I don't know about that! That seems really strange and I would like to prove them wrong! lol

It is absolutely o.k. In fact, when going to the doc's for an ultrasound to find the baby's sex; drink a cup of oj before you leave home. The baby will have more energy and you might get a better picture. (according to 8 mom's who said this to me)

It's actually very good for you...it has folic acid which helps prevent birth defects. I wouldn't drink like a gallon a day, but 1 or 2 glasses could be very helpful.

Its very healthy for you to drink , but if your sensitive to acidity foods and drinks and pregnant at that can cause Heartburn. Thats the only down side of OJ while being pg.

Not only is it NOT bad to drink OJ, but many doctors actually recommend it due to the folic acid in OJ which is good for the developing child.

Oh course is is okay. In fact your body and your baby need vitamin C to be healthy. PLEASE make sure you are getting enough to give your baby the best start possible.
Please check out a few of these links as to why you need to get enough Vitamin C in pregnancy.

Oj is good for you but it will give you heart burn if your prone to getting it and I use to get a rash from drinking it too much when I was pg

I think that it's rediculois, and that it can't harm you if you drink orange juice.
