Anyone take fish oil?

Question

Or any other form of omega 3 while pregnant? Any recommendations?

Answer

I take the fish oil that has been purified to eliminate toxins such as mercury

Answer

I take Nordic Naturals Ultimate Omega. It's an excellent brand with high quality fish oil that is very bio-available, a bit pricier than some other brands but doesn't cause me to have "fishy" burps.
I take a higher dose than what's recommended-- I take about 3,000 or 4,000mg daily bc of the added anti-inflammatory effect. I've had to cut back on my asthma meds for pregnancy (though I'm still on inhaled steroids), so my doctor recommended high dose fish oils helps to keep systemic inflammation in check (and hopefully will prevent an asthma flare!)

Answer

I take omega 3 that is special for pregnancy.

Answer

I was told by my OB to not take them.

Answer

I do. I take the Wholefoods brand.

Answer

It's included in many prenatal vitamins. If you take it separately make sure the amount is right. Many separately sold fish oil tablets have a higher dosage than what is recommended during pregnancy. Personally I don't take it anymore because I got extremely nauseous from it, no matter what brand I tried and when I took it. So I just try to eat many foods that have DHA: fish, flax seeds, certain nuts and veggies... But many women don't seem to have problems with the supplements like I did.

Answer

Flax seed is a great source of omega 3. Also salmon if you like fish.
