I read online that fish oil is an important supplement in helping to conceive, but I don't think I've come across it on this board. Has anyone Heard this or take fish oil supplements?

    I started taking fish oil when I was pregnant with #1.  Now that we are trying for #2 it's just a habit.

    My prenatal comes with it. I didn't know it could help you conceive but they're good for you and baby regardless. Just take them with food. I get fish burps every once in a while and it's a foul taste :P

    What prenatal are you taking?

    I LOVE the pregnancy test picture in that article - the test line is SO dark.  :o)
