April 2012 Moms
So I just realized that--
The prenatals I've been taking for the past 2 months dosn't have DHA in them. 
I was so excited that i could actually stomach a prenatal with iorn in it, that I just kept on taking them. H got them at GNC when I ran out of my gummy ones. I never thought to tell him to look for ones with DHA, and I guess he just assumes that a prenatal is a prenatal... I feel bad myself because I didn't even check the bottle when he broght it home. =(
should I switch back to DHA included now that I'm this far along???

Re: So I just realized that--
eav2c- I know how you feel! If I miss a day or two I feel like a bad mom, and when I noticed that that vitamin that I've been taking for 2 months dosn't have DHA in it it just added on to it.
I'm out of the prenatals, but since I was able to stomach these I may just keep taking them and like you ladies said, add a DHA sup. Are there any that you ladies suggest?
The brand I use is Spectrum, which I get at Whole Foods. I take three a day.
Target's brand are good, because they are small. I got some a different brand when they were out, but the pills were so huge and I was burping up fish even if I took the pill with food.
My OB told me to take an algae-based DHA, not the fish-based one. I use the CVS brand. This week though, I actually read the label of my folic acid I've been taking, and it has DHA that is fish-based. Oh well.
