do any of you mommies take iron pills and what for

I do, my iron was low and always goes low when I have surgeries & I'll be having a c-section so I'm just getting ready so I won't have to stay there to long or in pain.

@lovemyrainbowbaby2, yes and for extra iron

oh so its just for low iron

but do you need to have low iron to take them

I take 2 a day because I'm anemic. But even before they knew I was anemic , my doctor had me on 1 prenatal, 1 folic acid, 1 iron, and 1 vitamin D a day. So I guess it's not necessarily just for people low on iron.

oh ok
