A member asked:

How will pregnancy affect my bones if i don't get much calcium?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Bone loss: The baby is a very effective parasite, your bones will lose the calcium the baby needs, so try to get your calcium! there are many options, supplement, foods, there are also chewable supplements that taste like chocolate or caramel!
