Answer #2

They give you pregnancy supplements if you’re pregnant… I’d go see a doctor to check if you’re pregnant before worrying about it…

Answer #3

If you’re anemic go to the doctor and they’ll start you on iron pills and other supplements… but you need to talk to a doctor, we cant really do anything…

Answer #4

anemia is an easy condition to control. everything should be ok if you stay on your iron pills and filly your diet with iron rich foods. if you do that, you shouldn’t have a problem with a pregnancy. a baby does take what it needs from your system…

for example: if the baby needed calcium and you weren’t getting enough, it would break down the systems in your body (ie bones) to get the calcium it needed.

so most likely if anything happens, your baby will be fine. you are the one at risk. but if you are getting that iron, you will be fine.

Answer #5

im already on iron pills and other meds..but im wondering about the rest
