The FDA says that it is safer to have DHA from a non fish source. I say the DHA is straight from the fish and not good to take! I would not take it or stop. I take the one Enfimil makes and it is I think $11 a month from Walmart and it is from a none fish source. I would tell your ob you wnat another one if you don't want that one!
So I'm kind of freaking out. Ive been taking my prenatal supplements religiousy nightly. My dr. Wasn't too concerned on the brand Id take, so I continued (doubling the dose) of these over the counter prenatals i was taking pre pregnancy. Just recently I realized that the supplements ive been tking don't contain DHA. I'm 22 weeks pregnant and freaking out that I've done harm to my Childs development.
One of my prenatal vitamins have DHA but no iron, and the other has iron but no DHA...The one with iron has a little higher percentage of vitamin C as well...which one should I take?
If I take the one with no DHA is it ok to takr Advocare Omega Plex supplement on the side? Or should I take the vitamin with DHA and take iron on the side?
These have me confused!
DHA is a kind of Omega 3 fatty acid (which is usually DHA+EPA)
Omega 3 s are considered really beneficial for our brain and general health..and considered really good for fertility..
they're found in fatty fish or you can take them as supplements..
Okay so my current prenatal vitamin does not have Dha in it...is it possible for me to take a Dha vitamin in conjunction with my prenatal vitamin?...if so what is a good brand to take?
Ive been taking nature's made prenatal +dha they're about $26 and have 90 pills. They're high in folic acid and iron. These pills have really worked for me with headaches...i got them before i was pregnant also but i absolutely can't handle them while pregnant so my doctor suggested this to me because i didn't want to take any pain killers so its worth a shot for you:) i really hope they do help you!
My prenatals don't have DHA, should I switch from rainbow light?
The folic acid in prenatals is most important within the first couple of months as the brainstem is forming to prevent against severe birth defects. Pick some up today and start taking them today.
I am 36 have not had any form of bc in last 3 years and yet me and boyfriend have yet to get pregnant we both have children so fertility hasn't been an issue. wondering if I take prenatal or dha or is dhea, would that help.
Hello I just found out that I am pregnant a couple of days ago I have had 4 miscarriages in the past so I know I am very high risk, no one has been able to figure out why either... does anyone have a recommendation for a great prenatal vitamin?
When pregnant, I took a prenatal, an Omega 3, and folic acid (extra from what was in the prenatal). Iron is also a good idea, if the prenatal doesn't have 100% of the daily recommended dose.
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!
