    Calcium supplementation in the second and third trimesters cannot be ignored. Frequent supplementation will make the child grow better, stronger and healthier. Mid-to-late pregnancy is a critical period for calcium storage and bone development. Premature babies are born early, and the amount of bone calcium in the body is less than that of healthy newborns.
