Re: The official Cal Mag thread
I think I found this thread just a little too late! Some of you recommended taking cal/mag for low milk supply before AF so today I went out and bought some. But, we're new to the area and haven't found the natural pharmacy yet, so I just went to Walgreens. I bought Calcium carbonate 1200mg and Magnesium 500mg (2 separate bottles.) They are Nature's Bounty brand, (but I don't think they're natural even though the brand name sounds like it.) So, should I try and return it and find some calcium citrate? Or is it ok to take the carbonate form? Also, the calcium has vit D added to it, is that ok? Both bottles say not to take while breastfeeding, but that's the whole reason I want to take it- for milk supply. It sounds like this cal/mag is good stuff, so I'm excited to try it!! Thanks!!!!
