Do you think it is ok to take flaxseed oil capsules while pregnant or while TTC?

Question

thanks! I take it to help with a skin condition. It's a herbal supplement. But have stopped since I was last pregnant (but ended in miscarriage). I am TTC now and not sure if I should continue to take this supplement.

Any thoughts??

Answer 1

It's actually a GOOD idea! Flaxseed oil is rich in omega 3 which is vital for your baby's brain development and good for your health as well.

I took them while I was TTC and right through my pregnancy. And I still take them now and I make sure my son gets flaxseed in his diet.

Answer 2

dont see why this would make any difference as its a herbal supplement and def dont think they would cause a miscarrage, have a look on this website

or there is a helpline on the cow and gate website
