Low carb eating (aka keto) safe while pregnant?

Question

I’ve been eating keto for about a month or so and I really enjoy it. But is this harmful to my little babe ? I know I’ll ask my doctor Monday but thoughts until then ?
I’m so nervous to start eating carbs like bread etc again. I know it’s going to make me feel sick and sluggish. My body feels great without breads processed foods and sugar 
Is anyone else pregnant and keto ??

Answer

I’m a nutritionist and not having breads, sugars and processed food is a great and healthy way to eat. Adding all the extra fats to food is not very safe. Different people will have different opinions.

Answer

My doctor said keto is not safe in regular life, let alone when your pregnant. Keto is putting your body into shock that’s why you lose weight really fast.

Answer

Ask your doctor because no one commenting will be affected if there is a bad outcome. Pregnancy is different with each person.

Answer

Technically if you have gestational diabetes you don’t really eat any carbs but talk to your ob.
