I was diagnosed with low iron levels from my 28 week bloods. They didn't tell me the actual level. I've been taking prescribed iron tablets as well as my normal prenatal tablets since last Tuesday.
I've just popped to the shops and felt faint so had to come home. My head feels light and heart is palpitating (was told this is a side effect of low iron). I was off work for three weeks due to heavy bleeding and only went back yesterday, today is my usual day off and I'd normally have done all my housework by this time but I'm sitting unable to get up!
When did you start to feel better?
