View Full Version : Drinking milk in early pregnancy
Hello all,
This many sound a strange question to some of you but I was wondering if it is OK to drink semi skimmed milk that you can buy from tesco whilst you are pregnant? I think I am 6 weeks and fancy a glass of milk.
Also, I havent had any pregnancy symptoms. All I have been getting is since Friday I have been burping a lot. Not sure if anyone else has experienced this or no symptoms at all.
I had a miscarried in November and although my body returned to normal very quickly afterwards, I am still nervous
Many thanks
Helen
It is fine to drink milk, in fact milk is good for you. 6 weeks maybe early to have symptoms but I am sure they will come soon :) I wish you well with the pregnancy. I Know what it is like to feel nervous after a previous miscarriage. :hugs::hugs:
Hello lovely to hear from you :)
Thank you for your reply and also a big thank you for all your support you gave me when I was going through the miscarriage last time .
I will get drinking my milk :D
Take care
Helen

Hi Helen,
Congratulations!! Sending you lots of luck and best wishes x.
Hello, thank you very much. I'm going to ask for an early scan next week just to put my mind at rest as I had a miscarriage last time. Fingers crossed things will be OK this time xx
I had early scans too to give me peace of mind. Keep us informed :) xx
Yes of course I will x
:D
Hi. Everyone,
A little update. I went to the doctors to ask to be referred for an early scan but the hospital said they won't scan me as I haven't had any bleeding or pain. So I'll have to wait 3 weeks before I can get a 12 week scan. Its deffo gunna be the longest 3 weeks ever x
Pregnancy is not a subject I know a lot about as you ladies do all the hard work :) but I know that folic acid is a very important supplement whilst pregnant and can be obtained in cartons of milk .I actually had a very low folic acid count and always drink Flora Folic B milk.

I am sorry they are making you wait for a scan when you were hoping for an earlier one. I know how anxious a time this can be. The good thing is though, that you can see a lot more of baby at 12 weeks :)
Hello,
Thanks for both you replies.
I've actually just booked for a private scan for tomorrow now so will find out tomorrow. Couldn't wait 3 weeks.
Ricardo, thanks for your advice. I'm taking folic acid tablets at the moment but never knew some milks have it in them too. Thanks for the tip
X
I am pleased you can have the scan tomorrow :) I didn't know folic acid is in some milks either, it is good for so many things. I think it is good for colon problems too so maybe I should take it as a supplement. I can only drink soya milk though. :(
Just got back from my scan and I saw a heartbeat yay they said I was around 9 weeks. Fingers crossed all will be ok this time x
I am so pleased to hear that :) Will keep my fingers, toes and everything crossed for you xx
