I had horrible morning sickness so eating was hard, but beetroot juice and dates really helped me. Also, take your iron pills with lemon water, it helps absorption and didn't trigger my nausea.

My Hb is also slightly low right now and I am worried. Is everyone taking iron supplements or are you guys trying natural foods too?

Don't stress too much, Hb drops are super common in pregnancy. Just eat apples, beetroot, and make sure u take your doctor's recommended iron pills daily.

First of all, do not skip your iron tablets that doctor gave. Along with that, eat spinach, pomegranate, and cook in iron kadhai. Simple as that.

Oh, double babies meant double blood demands! I ate dried figs, dates, and had lots of green veggies, plus double iron doses my doc prescribed.
