Advice about iron?
I can't get in touch with my midwife until Monday so wondering what other people would do in my situation and will call her Monday morning for her advice.
I'm anaemic and on iron, I started on pills but they made me sick so I got changed onto liquid. The liquid was fine for a few days but then that started making me sick too. I'm vomitting pretty much straight after I take the iron so not even long enough for it to be raising my iron levels, so all it is doing is making me throw up whatever I last ate. I was on iron pills my first pregnancy but it never made me sick so this has come as quite a surprise reaction to the iron.
My question is should I just stop taking it over the weekend and try to naturally increase my iron levels through diet or should I keep taking it and just hope i stop throwing up? I was prepared for constipation but not vomitting, so I have no idea what I can do (aside from taking it with a meal, which I already do).
