Sweeteners

Ok I have heard all kinds of things regarding sweeteners that are and aren't ok during pregnancy but not much about stevia. Anyone know if this is ok to have? What about aspartame?

My doctor told me anything except sweet and low (the pink packets) is ok

Stevia is OK, but aspartame is not. Just be careful with stevia, it is related to ragweed, a common allergy.
