There has been a recent study in mice that indicates an excess of protein in the diet may make it difficult to conceive. There have been no human studies.
Preeclampsia is a common problem during pregnancy, affecting up to one in seven pregnant women around the world. This condition is defined by high blood pressure and excess protein in the urine after 20 weeks of pregnancy. It may also be called toxemia or pregnancy-induced hypertension.
This condition, however, is not due to eating excess protein.

It is too much work for your kidneys that are already functioning to remove the excess waste produced by supporting an extra life form.

What do you mean by "protein excess"?
