raw milk when pregnant

[Cru's Daddy]

We were thinking about having another baby,so is it fine for us to still drink raw milk?

I drink raw milk. Im 28 weeks now. As long as you have a good source I'd say you are fine. I havent had any issues.

No issues here. Wish I had had more of it through my pregnancy, actually!

I started drinking raw milk in the 2nd trimester of this pregnancy - never had it before. I'm 22 weeks now and still enjoying it! If you go to the WAPF website, you'll see that it's actually recommended that we have a quart of raw milk daily during pregnancy. I really couldn't afford that if I wanted to (I was never a huge milk drinker, only drinking it sporadically, so I manage about 1 cup a day right now) but my point remains. You should be just fine.

I was going to say this--word for word I'm 28 weeks too! and also think as long as your milk is coming from a healthy, clean farm--I'd keep drinking it.

I'm 24 weeks and drinking as much as I can get a hold of- which unfortunately isn't as much as I'd like since most of the farmers cows are on "break" and/or pregnant right now.
If I was worried about pathogens in the milk I wouldn't be drinking it non-pregnant either. The important thing is finding the right grass-fed source.

I'm 30 wks. preggo and have been drinking it since before I got pregnant!
Mmmm...this thread makes me want a tall glass of it right now!

I wanted to, but plain milk was one of the things I couldn't handle in pregnancy. I had yogurt instead. Does that count?

I drank raw milk through my last two pregnancy's.
