Hi  congratulations! A craving for milk could mean a need for more calcium. Dairy is a great source of calcium, but unfortunately many people do not tolerate dairy milk.

Instead I prefer recommending fermented or cultured dairy products which increase the viability of the milk like kefir, cheese, and buttermilk for example.

Organic, grass-fed, non-homogenized are labels to be looking for.

Hey ,

Congratulations!!! What wonderful news!

In addition to  ‘s excellent tip on Calcium-rich foods & drinks, I would like to add that a little sunshine for optimal vitamin D levels could be helpful in this case as well. We need vitamin D to absorb calcium.

If she would like to use vitamin D supplements because getting enough sun isn’t possible, I usually recommend doing this in discussion with the doctor because she is pregnant. This 2020 overview recommends having optimal vitamin D levels because it is beneficial for the baby as well as its mother and advocates for supplements.

The overview also mentions that and I quote:  
“[Serum vitamin D]… “progressively declines during pregnancy because of fetal physiological demands and adjustments.””

and since a lot of people are vitamin D deficient or have bearly enough vitamin D, optimizing vitamin D levels is something she could do if cravings still do exist!
