Does anyone else have low iron during pregnancy? My Dr gave me pill's for it but I just can't take them... What should I…

What are they called?

@lizzyamcmahan, try chewable tablets from a health food store. I can't swallow pills and that's what I use. They don't taste bad and are a slow release

That's how I am! Got pills but they made me too sick so I have to eat lots of high iron foods

you can try slowfe it's an over the counter iron supplement that releases iron slowly so it doesn't make you sick or constipated that's what I take and plus it's a really little pill also try taking it at night like right before bed that might also help

yeah me too! they taste like blood and always shoot back up liquid in my mouth. I couldn't handle it

Blackstrap molasses and orange juice! I got mines the natural way.

@mybabyboytimmy020516, I'll try to eat more foods high in iron. the pills make me so sick.. 😢

i have very low iron but I won't take the iron pill he gave me. I just eat foods high in iron and it seems to be making everything okay c:

yea me

also try iron rich foods, maybe a multivitamin with iron

Thank you @twinmamma2015 I'll try an take them anyway

I would try to take them cuz if not you may have get IV iron. I don't absorb iron pills so I've always had to get iron thru IV but while prego I had to go almost weekly to get it.

They make me sick😢

Eat foods that are rich in Iron

why can't you take them 😬
