Calcium supplements?

Hi Moms, I'm 17wks and currently taking prenatal vitamin which contains 150mg of Calcium. My body doesn't tolerate lactose well so I don't drink milk. Do I need to take additional calcium supplements? My friends told me they experienced joint pains and loosening teeth at the 3rd trimester probably due to calcium deficiency 😰 #firstbaby #pleasehelp

check with your gynae if you need more. joint pains in third trimester due to the massive weight you’re carrying! body is growing a baby faster than your joints can keep up!
