Midwife called yesterday to let me know that my iron is way down (again, this is my second pregnancy and same happened last time) and I need to start taking the heavy-duty supplements asap.
Anybody else? What are you eating? I'm not a vegetarian, but I don't eat a lot of red meat or meat in general. I like it it a lot, but eating meat every day just feels like too much. I eat the whole range of veg, and have lentils and beans about 4 times a week. Eggs probably only once a week so maybe I should eat more eggs.
I know I need to take my supplements with vitamin C and to avoid tannins around the same time. Any other tips?
