Anyone anemic during pregnancy?

Question

Just got told I was very anemic. I'm 33 weeks pregnantm

Answer

Liquid iron is much better and less side effects too!!

Answer

Just eat lots of leafy green veggies. Kale, spinach. Try a fruit/veggie smoothie everyday. Your iron will rise quicker this way thrn with supplements. I have chronic anemia.

Answer

I tend to be anemic all the time, despite a very clean healthy diet full of leafy greens and nuts and beans.  To avoid complications at delivery, I was put on an iron supplement by my midwife.  Many prenatal vitamins include or add it, but I found it easier to take a liquid form by Gaia that you can find at Whole Foods or any other health food store. 
Good luck!
