[|Human|] i am pregnent of 26 weeks, i have one issue..i dnt like milk at all does my baby bone are fine becoz i am not consuming milk i like more salty things instaed of sweet do i have any other option to consume calcium so that my baby will not suffer from calcium deficiency. looking forward for ur rep.
[|AI|]  Hi there,From 28 weeks of pregnancy extra calcium is required as that is the period when maximum development of fetal bones occurs. If you are unable to take dietary calcium in the form of milk, then it would be wise to take Calcium supplements. About 1 gm of calcium in divided doses of 500 mg twice a day can be taken. Any brand of calcium will do, you could try a few, see which one suits you the best, as some calcium tablets can be quite large and women find them difficult to swallow. Also do not take iron and calcium at the same time as they can hamper each others absorption. Hope this help. Regards.
