Does protein shakes upset anyone's stomach?

I've tried some protein coffee and protein shake and usually my stomach is a bit upset after. Do I just need to get used to it or should I try powder?

you should definitely try levels whey protein powder ! i’ve tried so many protein powders , shakes . you name it & leves never gave me digestive issues , bloating or upset stomach ! i buy it at costco . it’s on the pricey side but it’s definitely worth it !

Hi Kheyla!
Whey protein can cause upset stomach and is harder to digest. Most proteins also use seed oils which can also be a trigger for your stomach. I just sent you a message 🙂

Try having it with water rather than milk! Dont skull it, sip it. And if you still feel sick, try another brand!

I had this happen to me so I’ve just stopped taking protein supplements. Until recently I started up again and I put a scoop in my overnight oats which I then have for breakfast every day and for some reason it doesn’t upset my stomach that way 🤔 so maybe give that a go, depending on what flavour protein powder you have obviously 🫣

Scan needed at 33 weeks

Hi ladies! I just had a midwife appointment (I am 33+5)..the midwife was different to my usual midwife. She's requested I have a scan within 72 hours as she said baby is measuring a little small, however, she did say that it's likely nothing to worry about and it's probably just her measuring me a bit different to my usual midwife. Has anyone else had this? Am a bit worried although babys heartbeat and movements are completely fine.

Finding out gender

Has anyone found out the gender at a private scan at 14 weeks? And has this been accurate?

I found out at 17 with my first but I know a scan place that offers from 14/15 weeks and I’m impatient 😂🥲

Hi

Hi guys so I’m 25 weeks today and I haven’t felt the baby kick at all yet at the scans she’s moving constantly that it’s hard to get the right measurements my first pregnancy was cryptic so I just want suggestions from one worried mother

Rolling milestone at 5 months - What’s typical ?

Good morning ladies,

My daughter will be 5 months old tomorrow, but there’s still no sign of her rolling. She does tummy time and loves lying on her mat, playing with hanging toys above her and to the sides, but she only lifts her legs and doesn’t seem interested in rolling or moving sideways yet.

Anyone else the same or have your babies already learnt how to roll yet ?

Thank you
