Pink StorkProtien Powder for Pregnancy & Postpartum – 20g Whey + Collagen Protein, Prenatal Protien Powder & Lactation Support, Hydration & Electrolytes, Breastfeeding Friendly, Chocolate

This product is third party tested and contains 20 grams of protein. In addition, you have bovine collagen which has been shown by research to not only support your lactation needs but also aid in fat burning, restore hair loss, and support nail growth. Rarely have I seen a combination of both while also only consisting of 90 calories. The taste and mixing of the product is good in a smoothie.The fact this product is third party tested is a huge plus and seems to be priced right. One thing that has always concerned me is the amount of heavy metals in protein products. Because protein is not regulated by the FDA, companies can have heavy metals in protein such as lead or arsenic. This is a huge concern for health reasons, and especially if you are trying to conceive, are pregnant, or nursing. If you don’t believe me, go on Labdoor’s website, a third party company that tests supplements. You will see the heavy metal constituents of each product, even those graded as an “A”. That is. Anecdotally, I have found that protein products third party tested (such as NSF certified) for heavy metals generally are more expensive (around 50 dollars or so for 20 servings).I have also found that proteins that are cheaper also lack in ingredients. Such as whey protein being the second or third ingredient rather than the first. Or sugar being the second or third ingredient. For that reason, typically these products are high in caloric intake. The product may taste great, but it means it is more processed and consists of ingredients that are counterproductive to weight management goals. That being said, I have found proteins that have desirable healthy ingredient lists generally do not taste super great or do not mix well in a shaker bottle. This is like most foods that are healthy. They don’t taste like cake and maybe that’s for a good reason. If you mix this in a smoothie blender with some frozen strawberries, yogurt, and oats it not only helps with the taste but also supports postpartum recovery as well.

I just implemented the Prenatal+DHA pills from the same brand yesterday; no bad taste and no sickness. I ordered this protein along with the boobie stores brand; must say, the boobie brand one tastes horrible! This one tasted soooo good; I’ve mixed with eggnog; whole milk so far, would recommend a shaker or something more than stirring to get all clumps out. It tasted amazing so far, I drink 2 cups a day, and will be ordering more for sure! I’ll update as far the fetal growth at my next appointment to see if the protein has improved and baby has improved, but otherwise do recommend it. Also love the background story of the company.****update; since adding in the prenatal and also this protein powder and using the protein twice a day, and vitamins daily, I’m now measuring a week ahead, all labs came back normal and I’m on track with a healthy and happy baby!!

I really appreciated that the container was only as big as it needed to be! Anyone who uses protien poweder regularly knows that the containers can be ridiculously oversized, so this more compact container is wonderful. The poweder itself seemed to almost stick to itself so it didn't cling to the scoop or my finger when I touched it and didn't send poweder flying everywhere. The taste is great!!! A little on the sweet side for my preference, but would definitely help curb a sugar craving as it does hit that sweet note! I mixed mine (I got the chocolate truffle) with milk and it was silky smooth from start to finish without leaving much of an aftertaste. It is a little on the pricey side, but this has been my favorite protien powder that I've tried.So to summarize:PROS- Tastes amazing- Smooth texture- Easy to drink- Mixes nicely- Appropriate size packaging- Poweder doesn't fly everywhereCONS- On the sweet side (personal taste)- Higher price pointOverall I think it's a great product and worth a try!

I have been taking protein for a long time and I was looking for a pregnancy safe protein. I realize everyone's tastes are different but this was probably the worst tasting protein I've consumed. It was so, so sweet and doesn't blend well with anything. I tried nutella, a banana, other fruit like berries and it's just awful. And it's expensive protein. I really wish I could return it or get my money back. Definitely don't recommend.

This tastes great and is worth the money. I drank one a day towards the end of my pregnancy and thought the first year of postpartum.

I only use half of a scoop because I find that the stevia taste is too strong/sweet. Otherwise, I think this blends nicely and is an easy way to add more protein to my diet.

I am a bit picky when it comes to protein shakes and taste, and this one was great. I did a good amount of research to see what was safe to take with pregnancy, and found very few with simple and clear ingredients. I tried those few and this one was the best. It is pricey, but we'll worth the price. I have bought a few.

It’s like ever other product made for women, over priced for what you get, while the protein powders made for men cost way less and have more servings. It’s taste is all right. But I think it has a funky after taste that every sugar free product has due to the stevia. I wish they had the amino acid information on the container as well. I’ll probably use the product this time since I am breast-feeding and I don’t see any warnings against this one but once I’m done breast-feeding, I’ll probably get a different one since this is only 15 servings.
