Anaemia :(

I've been wondering why I've been so exhausted and at my check up I found out I am now anaemic. Thank goodness I figured out why I have been so tired. Now I just have to take extra vitamins. Other than that everything looks great! Feeling very anxious for my little man to arrive! I am 30+4 today! :)

I am also but I figured I would be cause I was with my first...all I have to do is take 2 Flintstones a day instead of taking iron pills and prenatals . Iron pills have always made me sick.
