  I honestly don't think there is a way around it. It's fish oil. It's going to be gross when burped up. I stopped taking it last time around.  I'll keep up on it as long as I can this time, but I have no problem stopping when the burps start.

  You can get plant-based DHA pretty much anywhere.  Nature's Bounty, and I'm sure several other brands.  It's probably cheaper than the stuff that is marketed towards pregnant women too.

  I am taking PreNexa (Rx prenatal vitamins) that have a seaweed based DHA.  So far, so good.  No fish burps, thank goodness.

  I've been taking Norwegian Gold Ultimate Fish Oils - It's in a purple bottle with a yellow sun on it.  They're orange flavored and "burp free" and I've never had any problems with burping them up later.  The only thing I found is that about halfway through the bottle, the orange flavor seemed to have gone away, and now they're super fishy and hard for me to get down.

  I take Expecta, which is one of the plant-based DHA ones. Works great for me!

  I'm taking this one. Not fishy, obviously.....

  Try putting the fish oil pills in the refrigerator.  I've heard that cuts down on the fish burps.

  I take Spring Valley fish free DHA supplements.  So far I haven't had any issues with them.

  I take mine before I sleep, helps a ton! If I take them during the day fish burps guaranteed, even on the enteric coated ones that aren't supposed to give you fish burps.

  This exactly!  My prenatals make me sick as a dog, so I take both pills right before I hop into bed and don't have a problem!

  I take Nordic Naturals and have never had a problem with fishy burps.
