Milk during pregnancy

Hi! First pregnancy here! I would like to know what milk you ladies drink while pregnant? Thank you!

Pasteurised fresh milk.

Any milk pero nonfat ang iniinom ko kasi yun ang sabi ng doctor

Super Mum

Normal high calcium milk, low fat if possible

Just normal fresh milk or soy milk. Cannot really stomach maternal milk.

Is drinking dutch lady milk good for pregnant ladies?

walk more or less during 3rd trim

Shall we walk more and less during 3rd trim for easy labour?

Walk more. It really helps you during your delivery. I was in labour for only 3 hours.

It's good to walk if you can, bit don't overdo it!

Super Mum

Walk more, will be easier when giving birth

I'm at my 20th week. Recent super bad case of constipation. Got stool softener from the GP and it is better. Meanwhile I'm increasing fruit intake and limiting red meat and fast food

Maybe speak to your doctor. You can also try a small amount of prune juice

Try prune juice

I experienced this during first and second trimester as well. I avoided milk and milk products, foods high in carbs and even cereals as they cause bloating. Not the best feeling in the world.

Have you seen a doctor?

VIP Member

This is complicated. I guess if you still love your husband, tell him the truth and ask for forgiveness. We just don't know if he will forgive you and accept the baby.😢
