Just make sure your getting your calcium somehow because then those leg cramps will come.

I can't drink milk either. It makes me sick. I just took my prenatals and ate tums and i'm not calcium deficent.

Yeah I don't think you need to drink milk if you can't but u do need to take your vitamins and yeah if you can take it in milk shakes that's great that's what I drink all the time I love them now that I am pregnant!!

You don't need to. As long as you're taking your prenatals, a supplement will work. My midwife suggested 2 tums a day. Or find other foods with calcium that you do like.
