Good news about passing your glucose test!!! I have no idea about the anemic thing. But if your doctor isn't worried than I wouldn't worry! Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

Glad to hear you passed!! Chat Icon My cousin was slightly anemic during her PG and it was no biggie. She had an almost 9 lb very healthy baby.

What week(s) do you take your glucose test(s)?
Edited to add: my girlfriend was just told she is anemic too by a hematologist she was being followed by; however her OB said she was within the average range for a PG woman...that's scary that he didn't know the correlation and he's the head of LIJ!

The SAME thing happened to me. They told me to take low doseage iron pills. After a week of taking them I stopped because I couldn't go to the bathroom "comfortably". Chat Icon

Re: Passed glucose test!! BUT found out...

I was very anemic with my 2nd pregnacy, I took th eiron supplements bu also made sure I ate a bran muffin for breakfast, this was really helpful. Anemia can cause extreme exhaustion, but once you're on supplements you'll feel better. Anemia can cause pica (which I had) and desire to eat VERY strange thigs, like paint, detergent, cardboard, etc. Beware, my PICA was severe.
