You can also start her on supplements containing DHA, such as fish liver oil capsules or algal oil supplements. These omega-3 fatty acids help in brain and neural development of the fetus while ensuring maternal serotonin levels stay high (she will feel happier and pain threshold will be higher). Other contents of fish liver oil, such as vitamin A, will improve mucosal integrity and increase resistance to infections.
I currently take a calcium supplement, magnesium, potassium and biotin.
I am a 49yr old female so I feel I need those for the bones, teeth plus I live in the san joaquin valley in california and currently its in the 100's so need the potassium. the biotin is for my hair and scalp.
I was taking a liquid multi but I always forget to take it because it sits in the fridge and not with the rest of my pills.
I difenitely (cant spell) rely on various sources. and will look at all sites.
I highly recommend Fortitude Canine with Algal DHA. I have been giving this to my growing pup and I have seen an improvement in his health and coating. Its a natural food suplement for dogs and includes omega 3 fatty acids. You can find it at Kauffmans Animal Health and
order it directly online.

A possible explanation for moderate improvements in depression among those who respond to fish oil, is that fish oil increases white matter (myelinated fibers that connect brain cells) in areas of the brain which can be compromised in depression.

So i visited a friend today and she looked at my prenatal vitamins that i had with me and was surprised they didn't have dha in them. She gave me some dha vitamins and recommended that i take them and continue to do so. My dr didn't mention dha. Am i alone in this?
FISH OIL has both DHA plus EPA. The lattest is not good for pregnancy but the DHA is good, so don't take fish oil as they sell it, get DHA alone. All pharmacies have it.
Since he drinks milk suggest making him milkshakes (milk, fruit, and ice cream blended) in place of milk at all meals for additional calories and protein. You stated he likes cheese, than add cheese to pasta, potatoes, or rice. Some tips for additional calories: If he likes pasta, then add meat or cheese sauces to the pasta instead of plain tomato sauce or plain pasta.
i take fish oil supplementation for DHA. the only concern there is impurities like mercury present in the fish oil - there are brands that make DHA capsules that have been purified for this purpose. some brands will even go as far to source their oils from the purest fish and highest standards, so that purification isn't even necessary.
i take this one. it is made specifically for pregnancy:

Hello and thanks for this service! Is it more beneficial to take an "omega 3 EPA & DHA fish oil supplement" or an "omega 3, 6 &9 EPA & DHA fish oil supplement"? I'm a bit confused as to which would be of the optimum benefit to purchase. Thanks for your time and expertise!
I take prescription prenataland they have dha in them.. OMG they are gross. I was getting sick like crazy when i took them. My Dr told me to start taking them at night with a meal. Well I've found that chocolate milk works. So i take them on a full stomach with my chocolate milk and i haven't had any problems.
