Oh god, my iron levels were so low I felt like a zombie walking around! My doctor put me on strong iron tablets which made me super constipated, haha. Trust your doc, take the pills they give, and eat some pomegranates too.
Actually some tests say 4 weeks but please wait a bit and go to your gynac for a blood test. I had early complications in my pregnancy so I always say don't rely only on home kits. Get a proper beta HCG done through your doctor to check progress.
Yes, it's safe if your pregnancy has no complications. Since I had thyroid issues and had regular follow-ups, I always asked my gynac before trying anything, so do keep your doctor updated on how you feel.
To be honest, it is all about clean eating and staying active. Cut out the junk, take your prenatal vitamins daily, and don't listen to every random advice. Just trust your gynac and stick to your routine.
I totally understand how stressful it feels when delivery day is so close and you worry about these numbers. Just hold your beautiful belly and take deep breaths. Try eating some pomegranate and beetroot daily, your baby is getting all the love.
