Anemia
Hey! So I’ve became anemic with this pregnancy😩 I have absolutely no energy at all and I hate it😞 I was taking iron gummies, but then I got so sick after taking them. My OB said if my levels get lower or stay the same, they’ll start Iron infusions at 37 weeks. I really feel like this little boy will be here at 38 weeks and some change😂💙 what if they don’t even give me the infusions….?! Im the one who had to point out that my iron levels were low🤦🏽♀️ I’m so scared that if my iron levels are low when I go to give birth, I’m gonna pass out or have a really hard time. Any other mamas have or had anemia?

@Destiny I’ll definitely talk to my dr abt it, thank you so much!!! I get sick whenever I eat dairy w this pregnancy so I avoid that😅 I’ve heard vitamin c helps!

@Wilchelle Hurt I might have to get infusions if my iron is too low. My stomach is really sensitive so I’m not sure if it’d make a difference for me😩 I have Hyperemesis Gravidarum, I had to stop taking the prenatal pills that had iron bc it made me sick. Ig we’ll see!

@Grey yes!! It sucks😩
I got diagnosed with anemia at 28 weeks, and I was taking prescription iron. I still take prescription iron. I was induced at 36 weeks for Cholestasis & after a failed induction, I had a c-section on 3/8, and I had to have iron infusions afterward. My levels came up enough to be discharged with medications again. Just keep on top of the doctors & everything will be fine.
