Yes, it is highly recommended to prevent UTIs, which are very common during pregnancy. Just make sure you buy pure, unsweetened juice because the regular market ones are loaded with unnecessary sugar.
It is absolutely great! I drank it during my second trimester to keep UTIs away and it tasted so refreshing. Just check with your doctor once during your regular visits.
In our family, we always suggest drinking coconut water, but nowadays doctors also recommend cranberry juice for bladder health. Just make sure to drink it in moderate quantities and avoid artificial preservatives.
I panicked when I accidentally drank packaged cranberry juice, worrying if the acidity would harm the baby. But my gynaecologist reassured me it is totally fine and actually good for kidney health. So don't worry at all!
