I had my baby 6 months old and she was an emergency c section and I lost so much blood they had to open me back up I was I theatre hours and hours I just avoided a blood transfusion and 6 months on I’m still bleeding I’m so fed up I feel soooo exhausted my iron has been checked last week it’s mildly low and no need for pills but I have some left over from my pregnancy would it cause harm to take them ? I feel so tried iv lay in bed all day today with my baby lying ontop of the quilt nxt to me she’s happy there and safe we watch tv she naps I nap but I can’t live my life like this I pray for the weekend to come so I can sleep and do nothing as during the week I take my other kids to school so usually when iv took them to school I’ll come home and lay on my bed with my baby anyways but I feel awful so drained I’m waiting for a scan at the hospital as my dr thinks thwrr is a chance somehting has been left behind which is causing the constantly bleeding. How can I stop myself feeling this dreadful ?

Did they so check your Vit D and thyroid?

I would get some Floradix and start taking it asap.

Taking the iron won’t do any harm at all. It can make you constipated so plenty of fiber and water.
You poor thing it sounds awful.
I would get your B12, vitamin D checked too. Sometimes even if the iron is a bit low but not anemia level women can still feel very tired so that’s something to consider
