Anyone hear you should reduce your Vitamin A intake during Pregnancy??? I am confused because Milk has Vitamin A &D and I have been drinking it like crazy , I figured it was better than soda..???

reduce Vit A from suppliments but not natural sources. It is possible to get too much vit A which can be harmful to the developing fetus, but not from food sources. You vit A intake from milk should be fine, but you shouldn't be taking extra vit A. By that I mean supplimenting what you are getting from your prenatal vitamins with another artificial source of vit A.
