What kind of milk is best for pregnancy?

Question

I'm trying to ensure I get enough calcium during my pregnancy. There are so many different types of milk available these days, so I'm wondering which kind is considered best for pregnant women? Should I stick to regular cow's milk or try something else?

Actually pasteurized cow milk is very good and safe. Just take warm milk with a little kesar or elaichi at night, it helps you sleep. Take care dear.

Sita Roy · Answer

Same here, normal double toned cow milk is best. Just ensure it is always pasteurized or boiled properly before drinking.

Honestly, don't overcomplicate this. Standard pasteurized cow's milk is the absolute best for calcium unless you have lactose intolerance. If you can't digest cow milk, switch to almond or soy milk, but make sure it's fortified with calcium.

Hey, I drank normal pasteurized cow's milk during my pregnancy and it worked great for me. Just make sure to boil it well if you get local milk, but packet milk is super easy. Stay positive and enjoy this phase!

Personally, I preferred organic cow's milk because it was easy on my stomach and gave me good calcium, which helped later during breastfeeding too. If milk makes you bloated, you can even try low-fat or pasteurized packet milk. Just listen to your body, whatever digests well is best.

I have heard from my bhabhi that low fat cow's milk or even almond milk is really good. I'm also trying to conceive and started drinking warm milk daily now. Hope this helps you a bit!
