Just wanted to say a big YAY on passing the 2nd GD test. One less thing to worry about! ]]> Fri, 30 Nov 2007 16:01:04 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=12639&PID=255474&title=2nd-gd-test-and-iron#255474 <![CDATA[2nd GD test and iron : she never mentioned a jab...?...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=12639&PID=255463&title=2nd-gd-test-and-iron#255463 Author: ElfsMum

Those are the ones I am taking. I have had a course of the jab and it really helped.

I had to take them to and found they were good also you should fell a difference in a few days.

Yay for passing you test.

They are more expensive than the others though, I think...You can buy the plain ones and just have a kiwifruit or orange (something citrus with loads of vit c) which will do exactly the same thing. The vitamin c just helps your body absorb the iron better. NEVER take iron with coffee/tea as it affects the absorption rate. And yes, before food is best.]]> Fri, 30 Nov 2007 14:14:13 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=12639&PID=255403&title=2nd-gd-test-and-iron#255403 <![CDATA[2nd GD test and iron : I&#039;m taking FerrogradC, too....]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=12639&PID=255366&title=2nd-gd-test-and-iron#255366 Author: Snickerdoodle

I'm taking FerrogradC, too. They're great!
They don't hurt my tummy or block me up.
Mind you, I eat a lot of kiwifruit so that probably helps
I took two a day (as per mw's instruction) for a week then cut back to the one a day dosage on the pack. I feel a massive difference.

she said 'i can go on a supplement if i want to but she will monitor me anyway' so not sure if that means more blood tests..i guess we have more later on? i was so excited about having a normal result i forgot to check when she rang but just wanted to make sure the chemist guy knew what he was talking about:) ]]> Fri, 30 Nov 2007 12:51:34 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=12639&PID=255325&title=2nd-gd-test-and-iron#255325 <![CDATA[2nd GD test and iron : those are the ones I take/took....]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=12639&PID=255309&title=2nd-gd-test-and-iron#255309 Author: peanut butter

those are the ones I take/took. They worked great and didnt block me up...did the opposite which was great while I was pregnant but I dont like it now.

I'm going to ask GP to check my iron today and if it is low I am going to try and get an injection. I feel unusually tired these days and know my iron was very low when Tom was born (I only had 2/3 the transfusion I was meant to)]]> Fri, 30 Nov 2007 12:37:23 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=12639&PID=255309&title=2nd-gd-test-and-iron#255309 <![CDATA[2nd GD test and iron : yahhhhhhhhhhh i passed:) and I...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=12639&PID=255266&title=2nd-gd-test-and-iron#255266 Author: ElfsMum
