Testing iron levels

Em • Fri, May 25

At my 27 week appt, I had blood drawn to test for various things. When I called my doctor to ask about my iron results, he said they don't test iron specifically. They just check complete blood counts. He said if complete blood count is normal, then I don't have to worry about anemia. Does this sound right??

I'm mostly vegetarian so I just don't want to be anemic and not know about it.
