Omega 3 supplement and moodiness?

Has anyone experienced moodiness as a side effect while taking Omega 3 supplements?? I’m currently pregnant and started taking these a few days ago (while also taking my prenatal vitamins) and I’d get extremely moody and irritable.
I stopped today and I haven’t had any mood swings so far..I thought Omega 3 was known to ease down moodiness and help with bipolar/depression symptoms, but it seems to do the opposite for me. Has anyone experienced this?

It’s hard to say if the moodiness and irritability are related to Omega 3 but I wouldn’t take them at the same time as the prenatal vitamins.
There are certain antidepressants that shouldn’t be taken with Omega 3, so if you just recently got off antideps, give your system a month before you take Omega 3 or fish oil.
