Is Fish Oil recommended and if so how much?

Hi Everyone,

First pregnancy for me and I'm about 6 weeks long. As expected I'm scrambling to do the research and figure out things like supplements I should be taking. I've read in numerous places that fish oil supplements can be helpful in the baby's development but they don't seem to suggest a dose.

HAs anyone else had expereince with taking Fish Oil supplments during pregnancy? Any ideas of he best dose level to take? Any other vitamins or supplements to consider?

Thanks everyone,

june

@juneyh hey! Congrats on your pregnancy! We typically try to avoid one off posts to keep the board clean. This question would be great under the great big question thread😊 I take fish oil and just take the recommendation on the bottle. There is also an introduction thread where you can introduce yourself so we can get to know you better. Though if your six weeks now, you might want to check out the November 2022 group as those moms would be closer to your due date. If it was a typo and you meant to write 16 weeks then this is your group and welcome!
