posted 22nd Feb
i just got a call from my doc. she said that she got my blood results back... and she said that i am a bad anemic (hope i spelled that right). does any one really knows what that means! can a person be induced if they are a bad anemic? i wish i would have asked her but i just thought about it.. so please help!

I have anemia, they just told me to add an additional iron supplement to my prenatals every day.
There has been no talk of inducing me fore my anemia. It just means your iron levels are low.

I have had extremley bad anemia even before i got pregnant and the doctor i saw for my IP exam said that as long as i make sure i take my pre-nate vitamins that i will be fine because the vitamins have like 150% of the iron you need. You should be fine

I have been anemic since I was a kid. As my doc puts it im not even a quarter tank full. You will probably need to take more iron pills. Depending on how low you are. But do not take more with out your doctors orders. Because to much iron can hurt you. But you don't have to be induced because of it. But you can still have an induction if you have anemia. I was induced for all three of my kids, so I don't see why it would affect that. But they will take blood before delivery and shortly after to check your levels again. Good luck to you
