Is it okay to transition to a vegan diet during pregnancy or while breastfeeding?
I transitioned to a vegan diet during my 2nd pregnancy. It’s really up to you. As long as you’re making sure you are giving your body the nutrition it needs through whole plant foods and are committed to it, you and are baby will benefit. Some say not to do it because you may experience harsh cleansing reactions (like headaches), but if it’s a slow transition, like mine was (over a 6 month period), you should be fine.
