My gynac mentioned omega 3 is good for baby brain but didnt say how much exactly. Im in 2nd trimester now. Anyone know the right amount or what u all are taking? thoda confused about the quantity.
While omega-3 is vital for fetal brain development, self-prescribing is never a good idea. Standard dosage is usually around 200mg of DHA, but your gynac will prescribe exactly what your body needs based on your diet.
Omega 3 is important but oh god, I can't look at fish right now because of my food aversions. I am sticking to ghee, walnuts, and whatever vegetarian options my taste buds can handle. Talk to your doc if you want supplements instead.
Please be very careful with any supplement intake right now. Having had a miscarriage earlier, I learned that everything we put in our body should be cross-checked with the doctor first. Don't take any random doses.
Hey, don't stress too much about these exact numbers. Eat some walnuts, almonds daily, and your doctor will add a safe tablet if needed during routine checks. Chill and enjoy this phase.
I was also reading about this. Are vegetarian sources like flaxseeds and walnuts enough for daily omega 3, or are supplements mandatory? What did your gynacs advise you all?
I totally understand how much we worry about giving the best to our little miracles. It is beautiful that you are researching this, but please let your sweet gynac decide the exact dosage so both of you stay perfectly safe.
Actually, my tracker app showed that 200-300 mg of DHA (omega-3) is great for baby's brain development in the second/third trimester. It also listed foods like walnuts and chia seeds. Ask your doc to suggest a clean brand.
Eat healthy, satvik food and pray for the baby's wellness. Your doctor will surely guide you on the exact omega-3 supplements needed. God bless you, stay positive.
I am in my 5th month now and my doctor gave me some DHA capsules. Are you guys also taking the same daily? I feel a bit nervous taking too many pills, did anyone feel anxious about this?
Honestly, during pregnancy, I couldn't even remember to take my basic iron pill on time, let alone calculating omega-3 milligrams. Just follow your doctor's prescription blindly, don't overthink it or you will lose even more sleep.
Humare yahan toh sab bolte hain thoda dry fruits aur ghee khao, usse sab poshan mil jata hai. Tum doctor se bhi baat kar lo, woh jo tablet likh ke dein wahi khana, apni marzi se mat lena behan.
In my previous pregnancy, I had complications and had to stop certain supplements at specific weeks. Please do not decide any dosage yourself, even for vitamins or omega-3. Consult your doctor first.
