probiotics?

Question

what are your opinions on probiotics in pregnancy? especially 2nd-3rd trimesters. i just got blown up on by a cashier! i bought a probiotic ginger tumeric drink and she gave me attitude, saying "ummmm aren't you not supposed to have that while pregnant? you should probably google it..." 😒

Answer

I've read that turmeric can cause uterine stimulation so maybe that's what she was talking about?? Or maybe she was just being judgy lol. Why do people think it's okay to make comments like that to people they don't know? Like we don't have enough crap to be stressed about. I wouldn't worry about it

Answer

My doctor stresses to me the importance of probiotics at almost every prenatal check up I have! Especially if I mention that my digestive system is out of whack! People are ignorant

Answer

Probiotics are amazing for the pregnant body. My naturopath just put me on some with my altered supplement plan for second trimester.

Answer

Yeah, make sure it's not a medicinal dose of turmeric (not good for pregnancy), but otherwise, probiotics are essential all the dang time. Babies can be given them, you can definitely take them now! I got some really good ones and they have fixed my constipation & saved me when I had to take antibiotics for a uti. 
Cashiers at stores are known for their medical expertise though, so might be worth listening to though ;)

Answer

I've added probiotics to my daily intake!

Answer
