Anemic

[duejan9]

So im anemic..I gotta take the pills twice a day...which is gross...so how do you ladies take it to keep it down

On the scale I was at a 9 and anything below 10.5 is in the danger zone lol
I have to take tablets twice a day too. I like to crush them up and put them in orange juice and just shoot it down. The juice makes it taste so much better. Try Gatorade too.

Yeah, with my first I had to take the supplements and juice was so much better then water. I also tried not to smell them because they made me gag! With this pregnancy they picked it up too late and I was severely anemic I needed an iron infusion in hospital so try to remember to take the supplement.

I don't think your suppose to crush iron supplements but I could be wrong.
My doctor actually wrote me an Rx for liquid. I just squirt Thr dose into orange juice/cranberry juice and drink it.. you cab kinda taste metal but its not as bad as The pills. Insurance doesn't cover it but its not much more than what you'd pay over the counter..
