Question: Is it safe for a pregnant woman to be drinking cold water If no is it safe to be drinking only once in a while or totally avoid drinking cold water
Answer: Cold water during pregnancy is a subjective issue Some people do not take cold water at all because of how it makes them feel On the other hand some people seem not to be able to live without taking cold water a day

It is important to know that no matter how cold the water is it will still warm up to the body temperature in the stomach 

When some people take cold water they start having running nose sneezing and in some cases sore throat develops All these occur because cold drinks may have reduced the clearing action of the nose throat and other parts of the airway which will now result to these symptoms mentioned above On the other hand some people do not experience anything when they take cold water

In pregnancy it would be advised that you take only what suits your body Occasional cold water once in a while may not be so bad actually but you should know that you have to take what makes your body feel fine

Those with allergic conditions needs to totally avoid cold water 

Hope this helps
