Hi doctor,
I'm currently breastfeeding my one week old baby.
I used to take Supracal 2000 tablet daily during pregnancy.
Can I still continue the tablet ?
Thank you

You need at least 1000 mg of calcium daily in breast feeding
One glass of milk gives around 300 mg
Take calcium for at least 6 months post delivery if your dietary calcium is inadequate
Cheese , tofu , calcium fortified juices, yoghurt are dietary sources
