Yay for passing my 1 hour glucose
test and not having gestational diabetes! Boo for finding out I'm now anemic. I
will say, I would much rather take daily iron supplements than give myself
shots though!

Victoria Vaught: I've had issues
with anemia. I was on one for a while. The one I had was slow fe and it didn't
leave the strange taste most iron pills leave.
Kacey Verrault: Can I only like half
of this?
Brea Echard: It's normal to be anemic
while pregnant tho, or after a menstrual cycle...your baby is using a lot of
your blood!
Cat Martin: I have been anemic off
and on all my life. Iron supplements are good but team them up with a great
steak and leafy greens and you will feel full and healthy!
Emily Beth Rusch: Last time I had
red meat, I got very sick in the night... maybe there was something wrong with
my piece but no one else got sick from it so I think it was just my prego body
rejecting. I'll try with the leafy greens but I sure wish they tasted more like
a buttermilk biscuit
Victoria Vaught: Yeah it isn't fun
being anemic for sure, but once my iron levels were evened up again I felt so
much better! Even now I know when they are out of whack. But when mine are out
again I generally crave red meat.
Emily Beth Rusch: I really haven't
felt bad at all fortunately. I wouldn't have even had a suspicion about the
anemia if they didn't run a routine complete blood count. maybe I need to pay
attention to my body a little more though
Victoria Vaught: It's hard when you
are preggers and there is already so much going on. I only found out about mine
because I went in for my yearly physical for my health insurance. Some of my
fatigue was because my vitamin d and vitamin b levels were extremely low as
well.
Emily Rusch: I'm always anemic with
pregnancy. Yay for supplements!
Cheri Granger Felipe: You'll get
used to shots. Be careful taking iron…
Martha Mooney Granger: is it due to
your pregnancy? Or will it last beyond that
Emily Beth Rusch: I think it will
only be during my pregnancy and maybe a bit after delivery. My CBC was normal
before pregnancy
Martha Mooney Granger: That's good
