My hb came a little low in the last report and gynac said i need to bring it up. apart from the tablets she gave, i wanted to know what foods actually helped u all. pls share what worked, im 24 weeks.
My hemoglobin dropped quite low and food alone wasnt enough, so my doctor added supplements and monitored it closely. Please get your levels checked regularly. Dont just rely on home foods if its already low, the doctor needs to track it.
Eat iron rich foods like spinach, dates, beetroot, jaggery and dals, plus take the iron tablets your doctor gives. Vitamin C like nimbu or oranges helps absorption. I kept my hemoglobin up this way both pregnancies.
My amma gave me beetroot, dates and a little jaggery daily, and it helped my count. Pair iron foods with something sour like lemon for better absorption. But always take the tablets your gynac prescribes too, dear.
