Hi, I am 29 weeks pregnant now. I got a call from surgery saying I am low in haemoglobin and I need to take iron supplements. Is it ok at this stage to be low on iron, will it affect my baby in any way? Will the iron levels incease by my delivery if I start taking iron supplements now?
Hi. Iron is a supplement required by both you and your child. It will not cause any ill effects in either you or your child, so please do not worry about it. And as for the second question, I did not understand how it can increase your delivery? I am guessing you meant, will it bring your EDD closer? No it won't. Best wishes.
