Protien shakes while pregnant?

Question

I read up on the subject a little after my mom wanted to put protein powder in our shakes. I read that we should avoid whey. Does anyone on here drink protein shakes and what kinds would be safe?

Answer

It's safe. At my last doctors appointment I asked what alternative I can have of protein because I couldnt keep and kind of meat down.

Answer

They are safe. If you are worried about ingesting animal proteins during pregnancy then I would suggest a plant based protein shake.

Answer

Per my dr - you can drink them, but in moderation
I had an issue with red meats while oregnant and hey made me feel sick but chicken was great for me. She told me to avoid like the slimquick ones or the special K brand ones because of the fact they are appetite surpressors and I think she said there's like excessive sugars or something. But she said if I made them -frozen fruits, Greek yogurt and some like soy protein from say a GNC that it would be okay to have maybe 1 a day. But you should talk to your dr about it

Answer

I do shakeology but I'm not sure if its considered a protein shake per se
