Pregnancy-specific formula milk can typically be consumed as soon as pregnancy is confirmed. Such formulas are generally considered beneficial, as they contain abundant trace elements and minerals that help meet the increased nutritional demands of pregnancy and enhance calcium absorption in the body. However, pregnant women should still maintain a balanced diet in daily life and engage in appropriate physical activity, both of which support healthy fetal development.
