I'm nearly 34 weeks pregnant. My iron levels were tested about 3 weeks ago and were just within normal range, if they had been one point lower I would have been offered supplements. I feel like now they probably are on the low side as I'm very tired, not sleeping well etc. Does anyone know if there are any over the counter iron supplements I can take safely during pregnancy?
I don't have another midwife appointment for ten days and I will ask to be retested but feel like I could just pop to the chemist if there is something I can start taking safely now. I'm trying to up my iron intake in my diet but don't think it will be enough to make too much difference.
