in 1st Trimester

I'm 5 weeks, should I now be taking DHA if my prenatal doesn't already have it in it?

    Look for a prenatal that has DHA in it so you don't have to take two separate pills!

    I guess I need to look into taking this too. I know you are supposed to get omega-3's from eating fish (particularly salmon) and I know that they are important for the body. Good to know.

    I've always started taking it as soon as I got a BFP.

    I started taking mine 3 months before we started TTC. Since the first 10 weeks are crucial in the baby's development, I would start taking them today. Congrats!
