First off, you can't tell if you're pregnant until at least two weeks. Go see a doctor, or use a pregnancy test to find out. And, please try not to have unprotected sex (std's are serious).
Second of all, bringing a child into this world is not a casual thing, and the child deserves a mother and a father, will your bf be around when you're fat and moody? This is why your mother may have some concerns.
Thirdly, Pepsi and Coke are not your only problems it's Caffeine in general, this means Coffee as well. I'd recommend weening your way off it, or going cold turkey (be prepared for headaches).
Good luck!

First of all, you need to take a preg test. Its the only sure way to know. When, in your cycle, did you have sex? You have to count from the first day of your last period. Most people ovulate 14 days after the first day of their last period. But some people ovulate earlier, and some later. So in other words, if you started your period on October 10th, you were probably ovulating on or around October 24th. You can only get pregnant around this time.
In the meantime, switch to decaf drinks, becasue some of the caffine might go to the baby, but you will not lose the baby, so don't worry about that..

First off if you are wanting to get pregant, then you need to start with prenatal vitamins so that the baby's organs form correctly. Best to start them 2 to 3 months before you get pregnant.
One pepsi or cola shouldn't be horrible but talk with your doctor. I suggest just lowering you size of drink until you don't need it.
You sound sort of young. You may want to rethink things if you aren't pregnant. Kids are not something to do lightly. It is a commitment that you will have the rest of your life.

If you think you are pregnant (and you've told your mother), I think it's advisable to see your doctor ASAP. They are the ones that can tell you whether you are or not - regardless of what any take-home pregnancy test may say. Also, I'm not sure if drinking pepsi or coke could have any effect on a pregnancy, however it isn't very healthy due to all increased caffeine and sugar intake. Try drinking some juice or gatorade to quench those cravings. Good luck!

No it shouldn't make you loose your baby, but if you are the doctor will tell you that it is not good for you to drink alot of soda. The only way you can really fix that is to not buy it or even think about it. Keep a bottle of water around you at all times for when you get thirsty.

for one, i hope you are ready for a baby. its no joke and being married really doesnt matter. ive been with my guy for 4 years now and we have no plans on getting married.
as far as the sode goes....its not gonna kill the baby if you have one or two a day. i love soda, but instead of pepsi or coke drink rootbeer or orange or even grape. something that doesnt have caffine. you can have up to 2 cups of caffine a day and not be worried. but i am 35 weeks now and i drink one cup of coffee and maybe two sodas of faygo soda. dont eat that much chocolate though, a lil bit but dont go crazy. its sugar and caffine they want you to stay away from, you and/or the baby can become diabetic.

i wouldnt get my hopes up yet, its too early to tell, and on the cola, and caffeine note, i basically live of of that stuff. i have 2 healthy kids, and i am 16 weeks pregnant. doctors will tell you not to drink it as much, but its really not a big deal. its like saying having chocolate will hurt a baby. if thats a craving i doubt you would quit eating it. good luck!

Well, you would need to conduct a pregnancy test. They are redily available at wallgreenes Jewel Osco or any pharmacy. It would be best then if you would go and talk to a doctor and hopefully begin to plan for a new member of the family!!!
About the pepsi, i dont know again cunsult your doctor. He/she will tell you what is the best thing to do.
Hope For The Best,
Matt

I had to scare myself into quitting. that's gross and not effective, yet I saved questioning approximately giving start to a nevertheless born or having a newborn die in that's crib. that's morbid notwithstanding it made me no longer prefer to do away with darkness from a smoke. i become additionally clinically determined with placenta previa and that i become instructed it could have been led to from smoking. I examine lots approximately it and that i become frightened of that too... the assumption of a hysterectomy at 22 or bleeding to dying on the transport table are extremely solid scare factors. additionally exchange your ordinary... I stop going to the gas stations that understand me and continuously had my cigarettes waiting. I mixed up the order I do issues (like morning ordinary). I additionally stop doing the flaws that made me prefer a cigarette and when I went out i might somewhat dangle to my non-smoking acquaintances so as that i does no longer be tempted. I fell off the wagon a pair cases yet i did no longer enable that make me think of that i ought to easily shop smoking... whether I had one, i might say that i've got stop and gave it an excellent greater good attempt.

i know a lot of people who have been/are pregnant. and drinking soda isnt the best thing, but you wont lose your baby. If you really worried about it just drink a lot more water to "cancel" out the caffine. Or switch to seltzer water...it stilll is bubbly and carbonated, but its just water, so it wont cause any harm. And congrats!
