View Full Version : special k protein water
Does anyone know if this is okay to drink while nursing? There isn't anything on the bottle that says not to, but just wasn't sure....

I don't think products will tell you whether or not they are ok for nursing mothers.
However, I wouldn't touch the stuff. It has sucralose (splenda) in it and I don't ingest artificial sweeteners whether I am nusring or not and now especially because I am nursing. However, thats me and some other mothers don't have a problem with artificial sweetners. Otherwise it seems fine to drink.

It is not something I would drink either b/c of the ingredients. I don't think sucralose is healthy for anyone, nursing or not. Is there a specific reason you are wanting to drink it? Maybe we can offer other suggestions.

There's nothing in there that's contraindicated with breastfeeding.
