Reply With QuoteThe ones I use say not while pregnant or breast feeding cause they don't provide enough nutrients for both mummy and bubba.
Personally, I'd wait until you've weaned.

Diet shakes + breastfeeding?
Can you or cant you use them while breastfeeding?
Ive heard yes and no. Ds3 is 10mths and feeding about 5x a day. Would I be ok to use them or should I just wait til I wean at 12mths?

I've also heard that if it's a low carb diet you are on (like Tony Ferg) then the ketosis process releases toxins (as its stored in fat) hence it will be released in the breastmilk, so they say its not allowed.

Hmm ok so people who use them while breastfeeding are doing a big no no. I didnt think they were safe to use.

Yup when I posted on the TF forums and mentioned I was breastfeeding (even tho it was only a few feeds in 24 hours, was starting to wean after 2.5 years) they came down on me pretty hard and didn't give me any advice than its not recommended on the program.

Xndo say they are safe to use whilst BFing (there are some major additions you have to make to the standard diet).
I did it for a while and while I did lose weight, it really affected my milk supply.
