So my Dr. office called today saying my blood work came back saying I have low iron. what does that mean? what can low iron do? and what kind of affect does it have?
My friend has low iron and said if she isn't pumping iron all day until her baby is born she'll bleed out when she has the baby, so just eat lots of iron and take iron pills!
Typically only dairy does it. You may just have low iron naturally.
@bellasmommy516, I eat a lot of cereal but its with 0 percent milk cause I can't handle milk well could that be absorbing the iron to?
@cbe2016, they put me on a diet because of my blood pressure and stuff and now low iron to. I feel like in falling apart. they said if I don't improve by next Thursday I have to be put on bed rest.
eating and drinking a lot of dairy will absorb the iron in your blood. my iron has been low but not to the point of anemic. they will just have you take extra vitamins to help boost the iron levels
I have it to. just take iron pills. I still haven't gotten mine yet but need to!#
It can cause hemmoraging during or after labor. You just need to take a prenatal with extra iron in it and eat dark green leafy veggies.
I have low iron too, I have anemia, & I have to take 2 tablets of iron a day too, its not that bad, you just have to get more iron in your system
they prescribed me some to. I haven't went to get them yet. they called telling me that.
@bethelliott, I have low iron because I have anemia with this pregnancy. I was just prescribed iron tablets that you take twice a day.
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...
Science!
My friend posted this on facebook last night and said her kids were asleep within minutes. It's a song that scientists created to help people fall asleep. I was skeptical but I thought what the hay, I'll try it out. I didn't bank on Dh falling asleep, but both him and lo were asleep by minute 2. And lo slept six straight hours. ?

My sweet baby girl gained her angel wings this morning. She was my best friend, my true love my everything. She was so happy and beautiful, I'm struggling to say good bye. Sleep tight princess, mummy and daddy love you very very much ❤️
please don't think I'm trying to scare you, in my case I'm extremely anemic and have been since before I was pregnant, my hemoglobin levels won't stay up and I've had to get blood transfusions and will again before I can give birth so I don't bleed out having my son. however I'm one of the lucky VERY few like this. normally you just take iron pills and watch how much dairy you eat because it lowers your iron, add more green vegetables to your diet, and it will make you less tired and your head feel better. and your Dr should retest through out your pregnancy to make sure things stay OK (: I hope all stays good for you momma
