Any other moms to be that are anemic? How much iron should you be getting? My doctor said I need to take iron pills but it went over my head to ask how many mg I should take.. Walmart here only has 65 mg iron supplements but I feel like that is a lot. I tried to call but I was on hold for 20 minutes & I have to get ready for work. 😕
I was given a prescription for Ferrous Sulfate 325mg, i take once a day. Your doctor didn't write you a prescription?
Oh, okay! Thanks ladies I'll look into it. I just want to start taking something ASAP but they won't answer. 😡 @the inmamma2015
yeah usually iron pills are 325, usually once to twice a day depending on how low your iron is. I would start with one and double check with the doc when they finally answer. But start with just one. I'm severely anemic I have to get IV'S of iron cuz I don't absorb the pills for some reason. been like that for 14 years....
I did, but I've been on hold for over 20 minutes. That's why I posted on here. I had this problem yesterday as well. Maybe I'll try again tomorrow. @sarahemccormick
No 😕 @annabellemaesmommy I'm starting to think that's a little strange as well. She's very good & on top of things. So I'm kind of shocked.
