Somewhen during my pregnancy I thought about DHA. The long chain omega 3 fatty acid actually reduces the inflammatory prostaglandins that are given for labor induction. So shortly before the due date I should probably stop taking DHA, right? This sounded so logical and bullet proof in my head, of course, reduce the series 2 prostaglandins deriving from omega-6-fatty acid residues in phospholipids during the pregnancy, but approaching labor date, this would inhibit going into labor!
Thank god I was still able to use pubmed despite pregnancy brain. I found nothing suggesting that I would have any beneficial outcomes if I stopped taking DHA (I was scared of passing the due date and needing an introduction). There was no evidence or research in that direction at all. If anything, DHA has proven over and over to protect from early onset of labor/premature births.
If “your own research” never makes you change your opinions then you’re not doing research, you’re looking for confirmation.
You’re always wrong about something. Figure out what it is.

Think about that lucky dude at other side and of the bell curve who’s just always been right…
That’s them lol.
