Default Using stevia while pregnant ?

Is it safe?
I've been using it for the past 4 months. And while pregnant these 9 weeks. I use the packets but only 1-2 a day.
Been getting nervous about it, so I'm considering on stopping it because I don't know if it'll effect the baby.

Better safe than sorry. I am not a doctor or dietician, so really I know nothing about it, but when it comes to our babies, when in doubt - don't.

Hi mom4life,

Stevia is not approved for pregnancy. It hasn't been shown to be unsafe - but it has not shown to be safe (so, it's out by default). Nobody can say what the effect will be.

I was a faithful stevia user - I have switched to raw sugar until the baby is born.

Very true, I switched yesterday to raw sugar. I don't want to gamble with my child's life. I just hope I wasn't too late.
