oh my gosh... seeing so many of you not taking the maternity milk, I don't feel so bad anymore. I can't stand the smell & taste of the milk. been thinking if I never take the milk, like will feel guilty if not enough nutrients for baby not. And what if not enough calcium. so just the gynae's prescribe of the prenavit will do?

Yeah, do mention that you can’t take pregnancy milk so gynae can give you some calcium tablets. But make sure you take calcium tablets 2hrs apart from any milk or Obimin or other calcium food/supplements. I don’t take anything that is not prescribed by gynae. Cause I don’t know what’s good for me as I had complications post-delivery for my firstborn and I trust the doctors more than my own need to take other supplements separately.

hi! by maternity milk do u mean those formula milk for mommies? in my first pregnancy, I took that and also supplements but was later advised by a dietician that those formulated mommy milk usually contains high sugar and not advisable to take often... so I stopped and ate only the supplements 😊

I take my vitamins diligently. But still drink milk, not pregnancy milk. I cannot swallow pregnancy milk. Just HL (this is not real milk FYI) or Meiji milk but take it 2hrs after any calcium vitamin.

I personally prefer taking the milk cos I can’t swallow pills. You can take both or either also will do up to you. I drink the milk maybe once or twice a week but supplement everyday will take.

i only consumed prenatal vitamins prescribed by my Gynae .. i cannot stand the smell and taste of the maternity milk and i read that it contains alot of sugar ..

Either will do as they both provide similar nutrients. I personally take the vitamins.

I took supplements and fresh milk becoz I cannot stand the taste of maternity milk

I drink milk and take doctor prescribed vitamins only

Take the supplements pls. Skip the milk
