“Before my baby can eat salmon herself would be it advisable for her to take fish oil supplement? Likewise, would you recommend that moms take such supplement?”
After one year of age it is okay to start eating fish – wild salmon being one of the best. No need to start a fish oil supplement before this – he gets all the healthy fat he needs from breastmilk. If mom doesn’t eat fish regularly, then it would be good to take some sort of Omega-3 supplement, like flax seed oil, or DHA.
