my doctor said not to worry about it. is it safe to take a prenatal for it anyways?

YES!! I take a regular OTC prenatal vitamin PLUS Expecta Lipil, which is a DHA supplement, as recommended by my OB.

DHA is great for baby's brain and eye development. I've found that the best price on Expecta is at Wal Mart.

Is there anything with DHA in it that is chewable or that you can drink? I have tried swallowing pills for years and just cant do it.

I found some blueberry pomegranate juice that claimed to have some but Im not sure how much.

is it all pills or just the huge horse pills you can't take?
i ask because the nordic naturals dha are a lot smaller than most.
i would also ask at health stores if they have a liquid version.
