Dha is really good! I specifically went to buy prenatal vitamins that included dha in them. Its omega 3 which is a fatty acid that is good for brain development and prevents neural tube defect.
The DHA supplements r believed 2 help brain development, but they are NOT proven 2 help anything. That's what my doctor told me. I wouldn't worry so much...DHA in prenatals is a relatively new thing...take our moms 4 instance, they didn't take DHA and we're obviously fine!!
What are your thoughts on taking fish oil or dha supplements through the third trimester for brain development? I'm thinking of doing it, I need to speak with my OB first, but I want some opinions :) Thanks!
So I Bought prenatal pills and they don't have dha. So when I had my 1st Dr appt at 5 weeks he said buy dha prenatal so I have been taking them. I'm 20 weeks tomorrow and a few days ago I ran out so I been taking the prenatal pills without dha until I get paid. But I'm wondering is it even a big deal which pills i take since I'm out of 1st trimester?
Nature Made prenatal multi + DHA......DHA very important for the baby's brain development. Never made me sick either. .
s brain development? I was told that ground flaxseed is best but other literature says that fish oil is better as it has the DHA property. Any advice???
My prenatals don't have DHA, should I switch from rainbow light?
Wow yeah you should definitely get a prenatal. Folic acid is good, but there may be other nutrients the baby needs he may not be getting from that particular pill. If you're looking for a specific brand, I use Brainstrong, which includes DHA (good for their little brain development), but most of the major prenatal vitamins will give you what they need.
When you get pregnant, your baby takes DHA from you for its development and if you dont eat a lot of fish, which is where we get it from, you could become depleted of it. Ive noticed my mood lifting.
I am taking "Kind Organics" they are vegan prenatals and give you all the necessary vitamin and minerals we need
Ive heard/read DHA is a good prenatal vitamin to take for brain development. Ask your doctor if there is anything you can be taking to assist in healthy development! I hope everything works out and this is just the doctors being overly cautious.
and it really dosent matter but the ones i think are best are the ones that also contain DHA it helps for bbys brain development :)
I work at a health food store and New Chapter is by far the best brand of vitamin you can buy its made from all whole foods so you can take on an empty stomache and it has probiotics in it which are great for any stomache ir digestive issues you might experience through out your pregnancy.
Consumption of n-3 PUFA-rich fish or n-3 PUFAs, particularly EPA, DPA, and DHA, appears to protect against the development of HCC, even among subjects with HBV and/or HCV infection.
I take the "vitafusion" prenatal gummies... they have DHA and Folic Acid to help with your baby's development.. very important!
