delivered 5 weeks back and feeling so weak and drained all the time. someone suggested protein powder for energy but im breastfeeding so a little scared. is it safe post delivery? anyone took it?
I was so scared to touch any protein powder after delivery thinking it might affect my baby through breastmilk. But my doctor reassured me that normal whey or clean plant protein is absolutely fine and actually helps recovery!
Haan na, delivery ke baad body thodi weak ho jati hai toh extra protein toh chahiye hi hota hai. Bas achha quality wala use karna bina heavy metals ke, ho na?
Since I had gestational diabetes, I had to be very careful with sugar even after pregnancy. If you are taking protein powder, make sure it has no added sugar or artificial sweeteners, and consult your dietician once.
Post-pregnancy recovery is very important, especially if you have thyroid issues like I did. Definitely ask your doctor which brand is best for you during your routine follow-up checkup.
Haan bilkul kha sakte ho, par dibbe wale powder se achha hai ki aap dal, dahi aur ghar pe bane paneer se protein lo. Agar fir bhi powder lena hai toh doctor babu se pooch ke hi lena.
