Tips for Pregnant Vegetarians.
September 5, 2012 by Katie
Last week, I announced that I’m pregnant and due in December. While my doctors haven’t been concerned about my vegetarian diet while I’m pregnant–other people have expressed some concern. While I’m not always making perfect choices (I do love ice cream…), I’ve tried to make good choices when it comes to what I’m eating during pregnancy.
While some people do decide to make some dietary changes when they get pregnant (Natalie Portman went from vegan to vegetarian while pregnant earlier this year)–you don’t have to give up being a vegetarian once you get pregnant.
Here are some resources:
Diet for a healthy vegetarian pregnancy – From Babycenter
Nutrition During Pregnancy for Vegetarians – From The Cleveland Clinic
SUPER FOODS FOR VEGETARIAN PREGNANCY AND LACTATION – From Veg Kitchen
A Vegetarian Pregnancy – From Everyday Health
Question for vegetarians and vegans — would you start eating meat because of pregnancy?
