Most pregnant moms are tested positive for anemia towards the third trimester. At this point, your OB will mostly suggest that you up your IRON dosage. With my first C-Section, my baby was anemic so they gave her some iron drops and I didnt need blood transfusion. Relax mommy, your doctors will take good care of you. I'm still hoping for a successful VBAC.

Oh ok.  And yea they gave me blood transfusion with my last c cestion which was 2 years ago

My first was a csection and I also plan on getting my tubes tied. I am sure your doctor won't let you bleed to death they can give you blood transfusions right?

[dopegirl90]

Why are you having a c section?

[dopegirl90]

Yeah anemia is low iron and also means u have low blood so im jus nervous cause I dont wanna bleed to death  and I only got a lil blood in my body

I myself am having a csection on June 10th if my baby girl doesn't decide to come earlier.

They won't let you bleed to death.. Stay calm, your doctor is doing everything to protect you! I though anemia was when you had low iron maybe I am wrong?
