I used to take creatine for my gym workouts before. Now im 8 weeks and stopped everything, but wondering if i can continue or its a no. Anyone with fitness background been through this?
I totally understand wanting to stay fit and active, you are doing so well! But your precious baby's safety comes first, so please pause the creatine and ask your doctor if it's okay. Sending you lots of love and strength!
I searched this on my pregnancy tracking app and it suggested avoiding creatine supplements as the long-term effects on the baby aren't clear. It's much safer to get your energy from regular home-cooked meals. Ask your gynac for safe alternatives!
Listen, there is not enough safety research on creatine during pregnancy, so please stop taking it. Stick to basic healthy food and protein sources for now. Always consult your gynac before taking any muscle-building supplements.
I panicked when I realized I was still drinking my fitness supplements in early pregnancy! My doctor reassured me that while a little bit won't hurt, it's best to stop gym supplements like creatine during these nine months. Just check with your doc once!
My doctor clearly told me that while creatine is naturally in our bodies, supplement safety isn't well-studied for pregnant women. They advised me to stick to natural protein and safe prenatal vitamins instead. Better to put it on hold for now.
