archie replied. baby is fine and heart rate is normal too.
calcium you can choose based on symptoms, e.g. if you get too tired in third trimester resume calcium, though I think minimal of calcium is require throughout pregnancy, talk to your Dr. about this. Especially when bones are getting stronger.

your placenta is not fully moved up so do not indulge in heavy duty work and if possible get sonogram done aroung 34 weeks.
