Keto Baby

Hello, I recently found out I was pregnant. Due 10.2.20.

Ive been on the keto diet for 8-9 months now. I cant find any legit information if remaining on the keto diet is safe for the baby? Anyone else in the same boat? Any one had a healthy baby who was keto during their entire pregnancy?

Pregnancy does require a higher carb count, but considering those with GD are put on a low carb, low sugar diet, I would remain hopeful that you can continue at least a low-carb regimen with your doctor's approval.

You will definitely want to talk to your health care provider. Keto isn't the healthiest especially long term unless you're under close care of a provider monitoring you and checking blood levels. I would suggest just eating a healthy well balanced diet as best you can especially if sickness hits and look for good carbs when you decide to add those back into your diet. If you're not sure how to determine a good carb ask I'm happy to share that info with you but only if you want it 😊
