If you are pregnant should you drink sugar free stuff containing Phenylalanine?

From what I've read and my doc says is that any of the artificial sweetners should be used in moderation. I'll have one gla__s of crystal light a day. It's hard b/c you want to eat healthy and now you have to watch EVERYTHING that goes into your mouth. How did we all turn out ok? lol

Phenylalanine can cause problems with the formation of the fetus's brain. I wouldn't touch it with a ten foot barge pole.

Artificial anything can be dangerous when you are pregnant. Natural sugars are better, especially if they come directly from fruit. Some artificial sweeteners have been linked with migrains which you don't want to have during pregnancy! Good luck!
