Dha?

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?

No clue why my comment has the asterisks.... Perhaps I had a typo & it perceived it as a bad word...? I think I said s.u.c.k.s (just in case it doesn't let me post). Just wanted to say sorry, though!

Yes you can, it is very good to take. Even better since we really can't eat fish much.

U can do that.  Most prenatal vitamins that also have dha r two separate pills anyway.  I take regular omega 3 fish oil pills from vitamin shop in conjunction with my prenatals from cvs.  U may want to look into dha specifically for pregnancy, but they're also way more expensive.  Also check to make sure the fish oil comes from small fish like sardines or anchovy and that it doesn't contain soy.  It's a lot to look into, but I hope this helps.
