It's a little pricey - my copay is $65 for a 3 month supply. But I honestly don't mind paying about $20 a month for really high quality prenatals. I found some chewable prenatals at walmart and target that contain dha too. I think they are vita fusion. I was just thinking that if you took a prenatal with DHA it might cut down on the cost. You can also buy eggs and milk that are fortified with dha too. Flax seeds, avocados, salmon, and walnuts are a few more natural sources of DHA. Unfortunately at 9 weeks all of those foods repulse me so for now I will have to stick with my vitamin! But I imagine you have a healthy appetite at this point. Good luck! :)
My dr did highly recommend a vitamin with dha and I am taking it again this time.

The health benefits of Omega-3's are just astounding.
Really good information. I don't really have a lot of expectations, but I would love if my kid is a smart as your little ones.
