Why Mums & Bumps is different
-
Super strength in one a day
On average double the amount of omega-3 compared to other well-known, shall-not-be-named brands. That means better results, more value for money, and less swallowing when you’re nauseous.
-
Hundreds of nutritionists recommend it
Over half of our sales come from nutritional therapists, doctors and experts who are very selective about supplements, see the real-life changes, and recommend us.
-
IFOS tested & certified for purity
All our finished batches are tested by International Fish Oil Standards – the most rigorous benchmark for purity and freshness. On top of the two sets of tests we also run because we’re omega-3 perfectionists.
-
Wild, sustainably caught fish
Our long-time Norwegian manufacturer only works with fisheries certified by both Friends of the Sea and the Marin Trust.
FAQs
How many capsules do I get?
One month supply. There are 30 capsules in every bottle, and we recommend taking one a day. The capsules are small (just 800mg) and easy to swallow.
How much omega-3 will I be getting?
Each capsule has 650mg omega-3, including 560mg DHA. That’s more than a whole tin of sardines, and much easier to swallow.
Why are Mums & Bumps mostly DHA rather than EPA?
DHA omega-3 is a major component of our brain, eye tissue and skin. So much so that during pregnancy the body feeds the mother’s DHA to the baby, and breast milk has elevated levels. In fact, the amount of DHA in the brain increases by 30 times between the first 24 weeks and two years of life. It's therefore the most important omega-3 during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
I've heard pregnant women shouldn't take cod liver oil–can they take fish oil?
Yes. Our fish oils are great to take during pregnancy as they don't contain vitamin A–which is the reason pregnant women shouldn't take cod liver oil.
We make sure our products are very pure, extremely safe and good for bodies at any stage of life. We have every batch independently certified by IFOS which is a guarantee our products are free from heavy metals or other nasties. You can find these test results in the 'DEEP DIVERS' section of the product page.
Can I take these before and after pregnancy?
Yes, absolutely. It's really important to build up your reserves of DHA before getting pregnant and to replace the DHA in breast milk.
Mums & Bumps is also brilliant for anyone who wants to take high DHA without the EPA.
Do these contain any allergens?
Mums &n Bumps aren't suitable for those with an allergy to fish.
Please see our allergen statement for more info.

DHA and baby brain development
Our bodies are so clever. Babies get the DHA (a type of omega-3) they need from their mums’ brains. Either in pregnancy or through breastmilk. And here’s why that happens….
