I’ve seen a few different posts on here of some mommas struggling with supplemental iron side effects and thought I’d share what worked for me. I was terribly anemic my last pregnancy even with iron pills and vitamins with iron. Pretty much would get scolded every other month at the doc office like I wasn’t taking them because my levels wouldn’t come up enough. Let me tell you that I’ve had ZERO iron issues this pregnancy and the ONLY thing that’s different is I cook in a cast iron skillet multiple times a week! I’ve researched it and the benefits are proven. Man I wished I had known that 3 years ago! Hopefully this helps some of you ladies too ❤️
My doctor actually told me to do this to get my levels up! She said it works better thennpills
@hotrodfjg me too .. thanks 💓 I'm definitely gonna try your tip!!!
@jordanrwilliams25, those pills are awful. I dreaded taking them everyday and got even more mad when they weren’t even helping. What a waste of misery. I hope you get some relief!
@kendrab, very interesting, I haven’t heard of that!
@hotrodfjg 😂😂😂 I need to get one asap because the pills are awful no matter how I take it
@jordanrwilliams25, yes! I was amazed at not having iron issues and was telling my husband and he said duh, we use cast iron now and you get iron from that. So I started researching it and sure enough he’s right lol. Like, why didn’t you say something last time cause it’s been sitting in the garage for like 6 years cause we only took it on camping trips 🤦🏻♀️
I got sick a little bit ago after taking my pill 😭
I use something called the "lucky iron fish" usually put it in water i was boiling.. my mothers anemic and uses it so got the idea from her lol kind of the same deal as cooking in iron
Can some one please tell me i was reading the pregnancy tracker it says second week you release a egg am i reading this wright in thats were sperm in egg meet!!!
What was some of your symptoms when you were pregnant the very first time? If you had different symptoms for different pregnancies please share?
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...
@dinamarie1995, that’s awesome, I wish more docs would! Definitely true.
