Any other mama's out here plant based vegans? I don't eat any processed foods and follow a high carb low fat whole foods lifestyle, but everyone has been screaming at me about protein while pregnant. As a vegan, getting yelled at about protein isn't anything new, but I'm just trying to do what's personally best for me and my baby and I get weary of all the opinions from people that eat fast food and junk food everyday.

Since I focus on high carbs, I also have a friend that worries I could be at risk of having gestational diabetes, any thoughts on that? I don't really think that should be a concern since I eat nothing processed or refined, but figured I would ask to see if anyone following this lifestyle has encountered those problems first hand?

I'd love to hear from other mamas that are doing things this way also. What helped you during your pregnancies? Did you tweak your diet at all during pregnancy? Did you ever feel nutrient deficient? Did you ever crave non-vegan foods?
