Iron tablets are really good for you to take in later pregnancy cos the babies are growing at much faster rate now then tend to nick all your good stuff from you. Not enough iron can make you feel properly knackered. I had MW this morning and she had my 28week bloods back and they were ok, but i asked for iron perscription as it has got lower with my previous 2 (10lbers). I am only gonna take it once or twice a week tho as can make you really constipated.. You really cant win!!!

That's on the low end of high BP hun, but she probably found it worrying as it's a bit of a jump from your normal readings. Glad she's noted everything though and that you start to feel better soon.

Just went to GP for my 31week check up (MW is on holidays), and now I know was I was so tired, dizzy and "unwell". She found some that I had a urine infection, low iron level and was not very happy about my BP. So now I am under antiobiotics, have iron tablets to take and need to check my BP in 2 weeks time. My BP was 130/80, is that high? What is the norm? 3 weeks ago, I was 106//62...
But hopefully now I won't have to fight to stay awake during the day and will feel more secure about this dizinnes! Yeah!

At least you know now and you can get yourself sorted out!!
See having your bloods taken is in our best interest....
