My last report showed low hb and doc said dhyaan do diet pe. Apart from the tablets, what foods really help raise it? I feel so thaka thaka all day, anyone been through this?
I totally remember getting worried about my blood count too, it felt like one more thing to stress about! But don't panic. My doctor prescribed iron tablets, and I made sure to eat pomegranates and beetroots daily. It did improve with time, so hang in there.
Improving your blood count is so important, not just for pregnancy, but also for when baby arrives and you need energy for breastfeeding. My doc always stressed on a balanced diet – lots of greens, jaggery, and dates. And of course, the iron supplements your doctor prescribes are key.
Most pregnancy apps actually have sections on nutrition and even iron-rich recipes. Besides the supplements your doc will definitely recommend, focus on foods like spinach, lentils, fortified cereals, and dates. Also, Vitamin C helps with iron absorption, so pair it with lemon juice! I used to track my iron intake sometimes.
Hey, same here! My doc just told me my blood count is a bit low. I've started the iron supplements, but what kind of foods actually give a real boost? Like, more than just green leafy veggies, anything else specific that helped you all quickly?
Oh, low blood count is super common, darling. My gynac actually put me on iron supplements and asked me to eat lots of green leafy veggies and dates. It's so important for energy, especially if you end up having a C-section, you need that strength for recovery.
Maintaining blood count is crucial, much like managing thyroid levels during pregnancy, which also needs consistent attention. Your doctor will likely prescribe iron supplements. Make sure to take them regularly and go for your follow-up blood tests as advised. Don't miss those appointments, they're super important.
