Omega 3

I just bought Expecta to take in addition to my daily prenatal supplement.  From their website:
 
"Expecta LIPIL DHA Supplement is for pregnant and breastfeeding moms. DHA, an omega–3 fatty acid, is received by babies in utero and through breastmilk. It is found in high concentrations in the tissues of the brain and eye. This indicates that DHA supports the development of your baby’s brain and eyes."
 
You can get Omega 3 from seafood as well, but that is one of my food aversions right now.  Yuck!  Oh, and before pregnancy...I LOVED seafood.  Would eat if every day if I could.  Now, no way.  Not even chicken or meat.  Gross!
