I just got some Oilsmart, which has Omega 3-6-and 9. It says to take 3 daily. Do you take those at meal times, or is that enough? Just curious as to other people's dosage. I'm taking the capsules by the way.

How is the Oil Smart working for you? How much did you decide to take? Any side effects (good or bad)?

How are you managing the C with the pregnancy? Are you taking any SFS or Miralax or what?

Keep in touch!

I honestly haven't been good about taking them everyday. I was taking 3 at night and when I do, the next morning, in addition to miralax, made a big difference..much more formed. That reminds me now to take those! The C and pregnancy is really horrible. I'm taking 2-3 doses of miralax and now I'm starting some fiber back in too to see if that helps. My doc said it's okay to have to take a laxative once in a while if I need to, but I'm trying to steer away from that, although I have done it a couple times. I'm eating alot more protein now for the baby, so that has helped form my stools more too...otherwise with just miralax alone, it's very runny. Sorry to be gross!

Oh, sorry! I'm trying that Super Seed stuff..there was a discussion on here recently. It's loaded with alot of flax and such. I just started on a low dosage. There was someone who was taking it and stopped because she said she pooped TOO much....whatever, I want to poop! I'll let you know how it goes. Do a search though if you don't remember the conversation. I've tried soooo many things, and I don't get enough flax, or good fats, so again I'm willing to try it.
