Missing one dose of calcium the day before your delivery date will not cause any harm. Your body has been storing calcium through the pregnancy, so one missed tablet does not change your bone or baby's calcium levels.
Next Steps
Just resume your calcium tablet as usual from today. Since your delivery date is here, mention this to your obstetrician at your next check so they have the full picture, and stay alert for labor signs like regular contractions or your water breaking.
Health Tips
Contact your obstetrician right away if you notice heavy bleeding, severe pain, your water breaking, or less baby movement than usual.
