My doctor said I need to take calcium supplements during pregnancy to support my baby's growth. I know my doctor will prescribe specific ones, but are there any common or generally recommended calcium tablets that are typically given to pregnant women? Just trying to understand the options.
After my C-section, my doctor told me to continue my calcium tablets for a few months during recovery. Always take the exact brand and dose your gynac prescribes, as they know your body's needs.
I am planning to conceive soon and was wondering the same. Do we have to start calcium before pregnancy or only after? Will ask my doctor in the next checkup.
Hey, don't stress too much about the brand of calcium. Just ask your gynac to prescribe one that suits you, because some can cause acidity. Drink milk and have paneer too!
Don't go for expensive fancy brands, just ask your doctor for a standard, affordable calcium tablet. Also try to get natural calcium from curd and ragi, it works wonders.
My doctor recently started me on calcium tablets too, but they make me a bit constipated. Do you guys also face this? Please check with your gynac before starting any brand.
Oh, those chalky tablets are the worst, right? But baby is literally stealing our calcium to make their bones! Just take whatever brand your doctor prescribes and swallow it quick!
