Can you drink protein shakes during pregnancy?

I'm a vegetarian and want to add protein to my diet so my baby can get the nutrients he/she needs. Will taking protein shakes, such as EAS Protein Powder, harm or help my baby?

Hi Ams, long time no see :) I dont know the EAS product you mention, but sure if it has been approved by the authorities, they must be what they claim to be and in that case, i do not see why it should not be healthy for your baby.

My doc said something about watching out for herbal things in the protein shakes. I didn't see anything she warned me about on the package so all should be well! hope you're doing well!
