Oceans Mom Prenatal DHA 350 mg. - 30 Softgels LuckyVitamin

Boost Your Reserves!
Pregnancy and lactation can place high demands on your body and deplete your DHA reserves, which are especially important in your third trimester and in the first few months of your new infant’s life. Oceans MOM Prenatal DHA provides the optimum 350 mg of DHA for pregnant and breastfeeding women. DHA is crucial for optimal development and function of your baby’s brain, eyes, and central-nervous-system during your pregnancy and in infancy, as your breastfeeding baby continues to develop rapidly. Because DHA makes up a tremendous portion of your baby’s brain and the retinas of the eyes, a deficiency could affect development of these organs negatively.

Prevent Pregnancy Problems!
Research indicates that taking a DHA supplement during your pregnancy can help you prevent some health issues associated with pregnancy, including preeclampsia. It is also touted as a natural means of helping prevent miscarriage and premature labor, in addition to reducing your risk of postpartum depression, as it promotes a positive mood and emotional well-being. Research has shown that low seafood intake (with high DHA content) may lead to an increased risk of maternal depression, so a supplement can become more important if you do not eat oily fresh-water fish on a regular basis.

Protect Your Baby!
Since DHA is essential for neurological and visual development, taking DHA during your pregnancy may help ensure that your developing child gets sufficient amounts of this essential fatty acid for optimal brain, nervous system, and vision development. It may also promote healthy infancy, as one study involving 1,100 pregnant women and 900 infants found that the children of women who took DHA daily throughout most of their pregnancy were less likely to suffer cold symptoms during the first few months of their lives, compared to children born to mothers given a placebo during pregnancy.
