Default Is Stevia ok for me now that I'm pregnant?

I'm cutting the sugars off my diet now that I'm pregnant and ready to give birth soon. I'm wondering, is Stevia ok for pregnant moms like me? I know that it's a natural sweetener, but is everything natural good for expecting moms? Just a thought...

Good to hear you're watching what you eat now. Well, I guess it's fine, considering the fact that it's a natural one. Just make sure to watch the quantity of you're consuming as well.

That I'm not sure of. All I know is that Stevia is a natural sweetener and is also used to prevent pregnancies.

I guess it's fine in moderation. Be very careful in what you eat, whether it's a natural or an organic one as there are complications rooted in being overweight while pregnant.

On what I have read, it seems it is still unconfirmed. Check this: http://natural-fertility-info.com/do...fertility.html

I often hear Stevia among my friends who go on a diet. It's good I guess as it's natural. If it's natural then perhaps it's safe for you being pregnant and all. Just my two cents.
