My hb came a bit low in the last report and doc has started me on something for it. i feel tired all the time these days. apart from the supplement what foods did u eat to bring it up? second trimester here.
My doctor said iron rich foods plus vitamin C help absorption, so I took my iron tablet with a glass of orange juice or lemon water. Greens, dates, jaggery and pomegranate were my go to. She also said avoid tea or coffee right after meals as it blocks iron.
Beta I used to eat palak, beetroot and gud daily and my hb came up nicely. Also the doctor gave me iron tablets which I never skipped. Eat with love and rest well na, it will improve.
Take your iron tablets regularly, that is the main thing, food alone is usually not enough. Add dates, sprouts and green veggies daily. Get the hb retested when your gynac asks, dont just assume it improved.
