How many mg of DHA?

I am reading the Dr Oz book "You: having a baby" and he recommends taking 600 miligrams of DHA a day. I just looked at my target gummy vitamins with DHA and they only have 50 mg!

Even the vitamins samples my Dr gave me only have 250 mg.

I do drink milk fortified with DHA, but Im not sure how many mg are in that.

How much are you taking?

Mine is 200 MG. I just googled how much DHA we should be taking and majority of the sites say 200.

200 mg.. from what I read, that's how much pregnant and lactating women need.

I'm not sure how many mg, but I take the DHA supplement Expecta. My doc suggested I take it in addition to my PNV.
