MIght seem stupid but my cousin is also pregnant (I am 28 weeks and 6 days) and she said a couple people told her not to drink Gatorade while she's pregnant. Has anyone heard that or know anything about it?

yes, its ok
just be sure to be drinking other things too, like 100% juices, and getting all the nutrients you need, because gatorade is not that nutricious

I haven't heard of that one. I drank Powerade (which is more or less the same as Gatorade) when I was pregnant and my baby has turned out fine. I think if anything you shouldn't drink alcohol and limit how much caffine you drink when pregnant. If you are really concerned discuss it with your doctor/obstrician they will be able to set the record strait for you.

Actually I was told to drink Gatorade since I hate water. I am 27 weeks pregnant, and have yet to drink actual water, and the doctors say its fine, since it's mostly water anyways, Crystal Light is good too, if you can't drink water.

actually I heard it's the best thing for you right now, I ended up in the hospital from dehydration (while I was there I found out I was pregnant as well, lol) and the doctor recommended me to drink gatorade, but to watch all sugary drinks and how much I drink them.

My sister is 22 weeks pregnant and she just told her obgyn that she was drinking gatorade and her doctor said it was perfectly ok,. My sister has had terrible morning sickness and her doctor said it was one of the best things she could have drank.

Nah its fine to drink. Its not as good for you as say, vitamin water or just pain water, since there is a load of sugar in it. But its not bad for you or the baby. Its certainly MUCH better for you than soda!
