Don't worry about it though, you can get more calcium from Dark greens like turnip greens, kale and collard greens. Although milk contains lots of calcium once it is pasteurized it is in a form your body has a difficult time absorbing and so it just passes through your system. I have also heard of people who want to drink milk during pregnancy so they do what spencerbaby1 said and make it chocolate.

spencerbaby1 - 85 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) hmm, perhaps you should speak to your doctor/midwife etc. can you have dairy in any other form? i can't drink white milk so i have been drinking chocolate milk to try and get enough calcium... yogurt gives me super bad heartburn so i avoid that too.
