Is fish oil necessary?

I was prescribed prenatal care fish oil by my gynae, but recently i am getting very sensitive with smell hence i couldnt even swallow the fish oil (it has been 1 week) due to its smell once i put it in my mouth. Anyone have any other recommendation? Also or isit better for me to consume salmon twice - 3x a week?

I am a pure vegetarian so my gynae prescribed vegan tablets from BELVEA. I found online that they are made from a specific algae so the smell isn't pleasant either, I still remember I used to ask my husband to take the capsule because once I tried to take the capsule out of the tablet cover and the capsule broke leaking the oil out the smell was too pungent I almost vomited. So my husband will take the capsule and give me everyday so I will swallow it quickly with water.
