Mild anemia

Elizabeth

Went in for my 1-glucoses test this weekend, I’ve had it in the back of my mind so I have been trying to clean up my diet by eating my spinach and veggies. I’m usually pretty healthy but baby wants what baby wants.

While I was there they also pulled blood for other test. I always struggle with giving blood. I have small veins and they are usually hard to find.

I just got my test results yesterday my glucose came back great 🙌🏽 but then I got a message from my nurse saying I had a mild case of anemia 😕. I can’t stop thinking about it. It’s not the first time this happens it’s just that this time I’m pregnant and I don’t want to put my little one through any harm. They have recommended me iron supplements and I plan on getting them today.

Any other other mommas out there with low iron? (Despite eating your greens, beans and meats)
