Milk In my Pregnancy

In my first trimester of pregnancy, my doctor advised me to drink milk.I won't mention the milk's brand.As a preggy, I didn't like the taste even if it's chocolate flavor. It was disgusting. But I know how important it is not only for me, but for my baby as well. So I switched to other milks like, cow's milk, really! Also, I ate a lot of cereals and put milk as my alternative. One of my friend, (a mother of one) said, "It doesn't really matter if you drink or not. Our moms didn't actually drink maternal- milk in their pregnancy, did they? Even my doctor told me that."
Then again, I know the benefits that it can give us both. My baby and I. I'm in my third trimester now and hoping it isn't too late yet. My partner and I bought the milk that my OB-GYN has recommended me. I chose the plain one and drank a glass before I slept... It tastes great! I really wish I didn't listen to others' opinion that "chocolate flavor tastes better."
