Take a prenatal vitamin and 100-250 mg vitamin C 3 or 4 times a day.

Take fish or flax or walnut oil and a few hundred IU of natural vitamin

E. Take 100 mg magnesium 3 or 4 times a day.

Otherwise don't do a lot.

Avoid stress. Don't get all stressed out, this messes with your

hormones and can affect the baby.

No vaccinations, no shots, no nothing at the hospital. Have daddy

follow the kid around, no matter what you say they are likely to just

take your baby somewhere else and do it if you don't have adult

supervision at all times.

> Are there any studies on this?

No.

Since all the risks are due to doctors hurting people, doctors won't

study these issues.

Thank you, Andy, for this advice. Can you or someone

else on the list recommend a particular brand of fish

oil as I have heard that some can contain mercury and

I certainly don't want to risk that. Or would flax or

walnut oil be a better choice?

Kathy, I also suggest fish oils every day, along with zinc and

selenium. I used Spectrum oils or Nordic Naturals

http://www.nordicnaturals.com/direct/ultimateomega.asp

I did not allow my baby to be vaccinated at all, she's now a healthy

20 mo old. I also have a 7 yr old NT daughter who was fully

immunized up to her 5th bday, when I chose to refrain from boosters

because the doctor chose not to test for titer levels and if he

chose to refuse my request, I could not fulfill his. My nearly 5 yr

old daughter is ASD. She will not be having any more immunizations,

either.

HTH and congrats on your pregnancy! Enjoy him/her growing in you and

trust in The Big Guy to take care of you all!

Hi Kathy,

Congratulations!

P.S. I use Nordic Naturals Complete Omega (fish oil.) I'm assuming

Andy did NOT mean cod liver oil.

[Guest guest]

I would also suggest you consider a calcium supplement throughout

pregnancy and lactation.This should reduce the amount of leaching of

calcium (and stored lead)from your bones into your bloodstream.

Hi Kathy,

Definitely go for the fish oil. The omega 3 fatty acids you want for

pregnancy are the ones in fish oil, not flax or walnut oil. *Some*

people can convert the omega 3s in flax and other plant oils to the

longer chain 3s found in fish oil, but many cannot due to genetics,

various health conditions, age, etc. So your only guarantee of

getting the omega 3s your body requires is by consuming fish oil, as

well as grass-fed animal fats such as pastured eggs, and fatty cuts

of meat. They aren't as packed with omega 3s as fish oil, but are an

excellent natural source of long chain omega 3s.

As for brands of fish oil, stick to ones that are molecularly

distilled. This process removes heavy metals. I typically use Natural

Factors brand, but Zone Perfect and Thorne are also molecularly

distilled. I'm sure there are other molecularly distilled brands as

well that I'm not aware of. If the fish oil is not molecularly

distilled, and you want to use it, call the company and ask for

assays (test results) of the oil which they should do periodically to

test for heavy metals, PCBs and other toxins. They should be happy to

provide you with copies. I did this with Natural Factors and they

were very accommodating.

I would also be sure to get some Cod Liver Oil in your diet for the

vitamin A which is essential to the healthy development of the fetus.

You could alternate it with fish body oil.

Foundation for more info on how to eat to have a healthy baby:

Make sure it's not dolomite or oyster shell since those often contain more lead.
