Is it ok to use MIO water enhancer?
I need something to get this water down. I used it a few times not thinking. Is it safe?

Re: Is it ok to use MIO water enhancer?
It contains artificial sweeteners. I limited that while pregnant.
I think it also contains a lot of chemicals if you read the label.
I'd avoid it.
Here- read this.
I am far from an all natural, organic person- but even I would avoid this.

I was told by a doctor that if I want to flavor water, use crystal light.
Or put fresh fruit in it.

I read crystal light has aspartame. That's the bad one I thought?

I was told to limit artificial sweeteners. I do not think occasional use will do any harm. My nutritionist recommended infusing the water with citrus fruit. It gives it a little flavor with out lots of calories and sugar. I think it will take a miracle to make drinking 3 liter of water a day easy-I struggle with it every day!

This! And even more delicious if you add fresh mint/cucumbers/oranges.

My doctor says avoid all artificial sweeteners. Even stevia. If you want to flavor water use fresh fruit, lemons, limes, I have even uses purees strawberries. If you need some sweetness, just add a little sugar!

I try with seltzer. I am not a bubbles girl. I feel guilty now that I have used the MIO a bunch of times.  I hope I didn't harm my babies

I'm pretty sure they are perfectly fine. I'm sure many pregnant women use it without a second thought and have perfectly healthy babies.

Trust me unless you are drinking rat poison, nothing is going to harm the babies in moderation.
I drank wine while pregnant, ate hot dogs, cold cuts, etc- and my DD was perfect.
There are women who do much worse while pregnant and have healthy babies.
Don't worry!
