Im in 2nd trimester now and my gynac mentioned calcium but i forgot to ask the proper amount. Mere ghar pe everyone says drink more milk but how much is actually enough daily? Just want to understand thoda better.
You'll need a ton of it because those little babies will literally leach the calcium right out of your bones, especially with twins! My doctor put me on daily supplements early on. Make sure to get your dose from milk and paneer too.
Beta, naturally you should drink two glasses of warm milk daily and eat ragi. Ghee and curd are also very good. But along with these home remedies, do take the calcium pills your doctor gives you.
Between meetings and chores, I barely had time to track my diet. So I just trusted my doctor's prescription for daily calcium tablets. It's the most practical way to ensure you and baby are getting enough without stressing daily.
Oh, I was so worried about my calcium levels because I hate milk! I kept thinking what if my baby's bones don't grow well. Honestly, talk to your gynac, they will give u the perfect daily supplements so you don't have to stress like I did.
Look, don't guess these things. Generally, you need around 1000 to 1200 mg, but your gynac will prescribe the exact tablet according to your body's needs. Just take your medicines regularly and stop searching online.
