Talk to experienced gynaecologist online and get your health questions answered in just 5 minutes.
There's no single powder that's specifically the right choice here, whole food protein sources like eggs, dal, paneer and milk are generally preferred in pregnancy, and if a supplement is wanted, your obstetrician can point to one that fits her specific diet and any deficiencies already picked up on her blood work.

Pregnancy generally requires around 1.1 g/kg/day of protein (total from food + supplements). A powder serving commonly provides 15–25 g protein.
Good food sources—eggs, milk/curd, paneer, dal, legumes, soy, fish and meat—are preferable whenever possible.
