Do you keep it during pregnancy or would you break it for the child’s sake.

    Break it for the child’s sake? What do you mean by that? As long as you keep it safe for the child, there is no issue and therefore no reason to not be vegan during pregnancy

    For me, the questions is rather “what supplements do you consider a ‘must take’ during pregnancy” :)

        Why. The child would only then not get everything it needs when the mother doesn’t get everything she needs. That’s a concern that people should have for every diet. Now when you think that you might not get every nutrient, then just make some research and look into what’s important. You can find so much information about it. It’s not a reason to pay for animals to suffer and die when there is no necessity right?

        Edit: Oh sorry, this was one year ago. I didn’t see

        Same here. We were worried as well, although everything seemed fine because we had expensive supplements all the way. However, my wife then decided to eat eggs again because she was too scared that she was not eating enough of certain nutrients (this was based on scientific research about vegan diets during pregnancy and one key nutrient was cholin, which is high in eggs, plus extreme cravings my wife started to have for eggs out of nowhere during pregnancy)
