Ferritin levels

Just had my blood results back on the Badger App. My ferritin levels in June were 96 and now they are down to 31. From what I can tell does this mean that my iron levels have gotten pretty low?

Thanks

They sound like they have reduced. Mine were 18 last time they checked but they weren’t too worried (I’m predisposed to anaemia as had it badly last year prior to pregnancy) and was told to take spatone sachets to boost the levels which seem to be doing the trick. Worth checking with the midwife though xx

If your haemoglobin is normal then it doesn't really matter. 31 is still within normal range. We don't normally give iron supplements unless it's less than 11. Or you have a low haemoglobin. X

Lost friends since being a mum

Good morning! Can anyone relate to this!

My two friends and me have always been close since our early teens. I’m the first to have a baby.

One friend has big house, career and boyfriend

Other out of a long term relationship and being single having fun etc

Before baby we would all hang at my
Apartment, chat eat and just have
Fun.

Now I don’t even get a text to ask how my baby is, how I am. I really thought they would be awesome aunties. But honestly they don’t care.

They meet up a lot to do cool things, which I can’t be upset about as I can’t as I have my baby.

I don’t know I feel sad about it.

Am I over reacting?

31 weeks pregnant and lonely

How to deal with loneliness in pregnancy when your boyfriend goes out with his friends drinking 😅🥲 I only have three friends, two are never really free and one lives back in Liverpool and has her own set of friends where she goes to raves and goes on holiday with them lol. My boyfriend is going out soon for the night as it’s sunny and I’ll just be sat here crying like every single time! When does it stop 🤣
