I am lactose intolerant - how do I ensure I am getting enough calcium?

The recommended calcium intake during pregnancy is 1200mg. Apart from dairy products, you can get calcium from these other sources and food products: - almond, soy, or rice milk - almonds, dread peans and beans - vegetables: kale, broccoli, spinach, bak choy - salmon with bones, sardines - tofu - calcium supplement (in addition to your prenatal vitamin) You can also try eating cheese and yogurt. These have lower level of lactose than other dairy products and some are still able to tolerate these. Also, keep in mind that vitamin D is essential for maximum absortion of calcium. Good sources are eggs, fish, and regular exposure to sunlight.
