The pre natal vitamins that im taking are called Pregnacare, and it comes with a packet of the omega fish oil containing dha etc so its formulated for pregnancy!! Ive just suffered my 2nd MC so Im willing to give anything a go!!!!
Just wanted to share my findings with you all :-) As I said in my last post if you research the benefits on the net they all mention about it helping with miscarriage etc..
i just went to an acupuncturist for fertility and she recommended fish oil - in particular cod liver oil. She said it is good for producing healthy follicles as well. I just added that to the other vitamins i'm taking. crossing my fingers!
My RE put me on prenatal vitamins and Expectra the day I walked into the office!
Both my RE and my OBGYN put me on prescriping prenatal ; iron and Expecta !
Expecta is DHA and it is made for PG women so it is very safe and you can get it at wal mart for about $13.00 for 30 day supplie !!
And that you about the resurch that it help stop miscarages I need all the help I can get This is our only chance !!
I am 13 weeks pregnant and my OB has me taking asprin and fish oil supplements along with my prenatal vitamin. I am having twins and she said I needed the extra.
This is what I found the other day:
Precautions:
Fish oil capsules contain both DHA and EPA. Supplements containing EPA may not be recommended for infants or small children because they upset the balance between DHA and EPA during early development. Pregnant women should talk to their doctor before taking fish oil supplements.
Fish oil capsules may cause minor side effects, such as loose stools, abdominal discomfort, and belching. In addition, they may prolong bleeding time slightly. If you take blood-thinning medication, (Like baby aspirin) talk to your doctor before taking fish oil.
