Vegan whilst pregnant

Any advice from other vegans whilst pregnant?? I am a vegetarian and have been reading about the multiple benefits of going vegan whilst pregnant for the baby and myself! I'd much rather get my calcium from other sources than animal milk.. any tips, advice, health accolades would be greatly appreciated x

I wouldn’t change your diet during pregnancy.
I would fear giving them a cows milk allergy by not exposing them to diary in the womb
I’m vegetarian - I was fine during pregnancy but I found afterwards my diet was shit when I was tired and breastfeeding so I felt awful then. Take supplements whatever you do.
