Doc mentioned omega 3 is good for baby brain but didn't give me a fixed amount. Im veg mostly so getting it from food is hard. How much per day is normal during pregnancy?
My mother advised eating walnuts and ghee, but for proper Omega 3, my doctor prescribed a specific capsule. It is best to trust whatever dosage your gynecologist recommends for your body.
Haan, ye toh doctor hi acche se batayenge na. Omega 3 baby ke brain development ke liye accha hota hai, par khud se dosage mat decide karo. Doctor se likhwa lo, wo best hai.
I was also wondering about this. My doc gave me a supplement but I want to know if I should also eat flaxseeds or walnuts daily? Let me know what your doctor suggested.
Normally, around 200-300 mg of DHA per day is recommended. But don't start any supplements on your own. Let your doctor prescribe the exact pill and dosage based on your diet.
Between work and managing the house, I couldn't track my nutrient intake. I simply asked my doc for a daily prenatal pill that already had the required Omega 3 dosage. Saves time and effort.
Dosage depends entirely on your blood reports and overall health history. I had a complicated pregnancy, so my doctor customized all my supplement doses. Please do not take random doses, always consult your gynac first.
