Essential Calcium Support That Completes Your Pregnancy Nutrition

MaternityMax and our other base prenatal formulas are built around folic acid, glucosamine, CoQ10, and a core vitamin complex — calcium isn't a headline ingredient in either. But calcium and phosphorus demands rise substantially in the second half of pregnancy and through lactation, as the body directs minerals toward fetal skeletal development and then milk production.1,2 PregnaPaws Calcium (155mg calcium + 1.25mcg Vitamin D3 per tablet) is designed to close that specific gap, working alongside a base prenatal and Omega-3 as part of the Core Trio. At this modest per-tablet dose, it's intended as a top-up on a complete, balanced diet — not a substitute for one. Veterinary sources are consistent that supplementation is best started in the second half of gestation or at lactation, rather than from early pregnancy, since high-dose or very early oral calcium can suppress the dam's natural parathyroid response and raise the risk of postpartum hypocalcemia (eclampsia).3,4,5 Always confirm timing and dose with your veterinarian, particularly for toy and small breeds or dogs with a prior history of eclampsia.
