Anyone taking vitamins with DHA?

Question

My Doctor said that baby's tend to grow more than average if taking DHA in prenatal vitamins . I went for my 20 weeks Ultrassound and baby boy weight is 566g (20oz) and he was supposed to be around 300g. So he is very big. I'm wondering if this will make my delivery harder . Should I switch for a prenatal vitamin without DHA?

Answer

I an taking prenatals with DHA, doctor also recommended them. I didnt know there was some kind of relation between the vitamins and how much the baby grows, but it has measured larger than it should (5 days more). This is my first baby so i dont really know what to expect

Answer

I've been taking vitamins with DHA from the beginning and I have my anatomy scan tomorrow so I guess I'll see if he or she is measuring ahead or not then...he or she was four days behind at my 12week4days scan so I guess I will see tomorrow : ) I'll let you know!

Answer

Hmmm that's interesting, I took it with both my boys and they were huge, no explanation as to why either. First was 9lbs11oz by section and second was 10lbs 10oz vaginally, it really wasn't that bad. Now this time I am having a horrible time remembering to take my prenatal, I might take it every third or fourth day and baby is measuring normal and it's a girl. My SIL was on it too and had an 11lbs 8oz girl! I haven't heard about this but I might read up on it now.
