Hi,

Is anyone else taking iron tablets? I've suffered with hg this pregnancy (though managed well at the moment) and they're making me throw up. I was told spatone etc wouldn't get my iron levels up in time for the birth. Has anyone managed to get the iron infusion instead? My midwife is strongly encouraging continuing with the pills but I'm still working and i can't be sick like this 😣

the advice states take them on an empty stomach. DO NOT TAKE THEM ON AN EMPTY STOMACH. I have been on iron tablets for years and even not it can leave me feeling really sick. i know it doesn't absorb as well but absorbs better than if i vomit.

The feeling does pass after a week or two
