Any vegan mommies ?

Question

I’m 18 weeks and feel like I’ve been deceived . I’m some what ignorant to the vegan pregnancy lifestyle & about shots vaccines & etc
But I’m stepping up I can’t let medical providers make these decisions for me or force me to do anything. I feel this way with birth too. I feel completely out of control on my own birth and not even half way yet.
Definitely educating myself at this point .

Answer

My Dr is vegan and she says the western world feeds us crap by saying we cant raise a vegan baby.Go for it.A big help to me is superfood supplements ..I take spirulina n The Perfect Food.Lotns of love ..A note to say too that sometimes when people ate vegan or vegetarian a shortage of b12 can make up feel lightheaded..also lack of protein can do this.Keep nuts like almonds and pecans around( u can increase their dogesti ability by sprouting them..soak almonds for 12 hours..I do it in the fridge but room temp is ok of u change the water every while) Pecans 8 hours ,walnuts 6 hours.U ll taste the water comingvout..it s awesome..throw those on a salad w raisins  shredded carrots n beets n add your favorite dressing n u habe a great meal.I liked making vegan pizza from scratch ( before I had my 3 kids..I dont remember the recipe but it was so good it fed carnivores).Theres also a new burger brand..Beyond Burger I believe it scalled..I hear it can trick meat eaters too.For me the transition  was easiest if I kept meatless choices around th like veggie meatballs n deli meats.Tofu can be done so many ways but my absolute FAV is cubing it ,rolling it in nutritional yeast n baking it .U can dip in a hot sauce or a peanut sauce or whatever ( u flip it once..I out it on 350 on middle rack

Answer

Yup! My OB is vegan as well.

Answer

I made the transition to whole food plant based but I’m not 100% I’d say 85%. I made my 2nd sons foods at home and I plan to do the same for this one. None of that Ferber cereal crap they call food. I really feel like we are told things about food to create fear that we are depriving our children when in all actuality you are probably more in-tune with the food, the process of making it and the benefits of real food vs this garbage they wrap in plastic and cardboard and call “food”
