Anyone suffers from a potassium deficiency during pregnancy?

Question

For some reason my potassium keeps dropping. I have no  idea why as I am not throwing up or having diarrhea. Been trying to eat potassium rich foods and drinking plenty of water and whenever I get treated for low potassium, it just drops again... currently having to take potassium supplements everyday for a month. If anyone has dealt with this during their pregnancy please help!! I’m 20 weeks and I’m just very scared as I do not know what’s going on.

Answer

I had a big potassium deficiency in my pregnancy. I took supplements from 15 weeks on because of it. I never had any signs or symptoms, I only knew because they did regular blood work and found out.

Answer

I get that this is older, but I’m searching to know if potassium supplements are safe? I feel like I wouldn’t have had them prescribed to me if not. But it wasn’t my obgyn. My magnesium is low as well.

Answer

How’s your magnesium? Magnesium allows you to properly absorb potassium and vitamin c. So being low in magnesium can cause other chronic deficiencies
