Two questions!

Just out of curiosity is it possible to be lactose and tolerant during pregnancy?  I've always been able to drink milk before pregnancy now I can't with out running to the bathroom 5 minutes later. Also does anyone else have problems with their tailbones hurting?  I'm fixing to be 28 weeks and ever since about 15 weeks when I walk around a lot or anything my tailbone hurts horribly. My mom says he might be pressing on something but idk.

Try soy milk, it comes in flavors too (vanilla, chocolate). Covered by wic (if you inform them). Doesn't taste bad with everyday foods (cereal, cooking, etc)

Lactose Intolerance can be triggered mostly by either not having milk for long periods of time, or having alot of milk for long periods of time.

Your baby could be in your back that's what I was told... My little one is in my back which is why they say I have a small belly...idk about the milk I know I can't drink as much as I like now that I'm pregnant maybe because I drink 2% now thanks to wic lol but I usually drink whole so that could be the issue

Not sure about your tailbone pain but i know that some people just cant stand milk during pregnancy and throw it up. Usually being lactose intolerant would give you diarrhea.
