I had to go back to the dr today as he is not impressed with my iron levels so instead of just been given a script for iron tablets, I get given a script for super iron tablets and for 3 viles of iron to be injected into me once a week for 3 weeks. So i'm the lucky person who gets to have a jab every Friday morning and a blood test every Monday to check the levels. I'm hoping that this will also helps all my other problems. ------------- I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived! |

Don't forget to eat more bran and fruit because lots of iron can make you really constipated(SP?). I was on 1000mg a day and it was really, really bad.

Its a good thing I don't drink tea or coffee now (went of coffee big time when I was pregnnat with Josh), but I think the diet coke may have a effect on it so I have to cut back on that. The tablets I have been given have stuff in them to help with constipation - i've had these once before and didn't have issues last time. But you would think I had the jab at 12 that I wouldn't still be hurting but no my butt still hurts. ------------- I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived! |

Oooooh Becks, I'm scared now!
I'm due for another blood test to check my iron and injections are my only option if my levels aren't up. Do you have a mark where the shot was? My Dr told me they stain your skin as well? Poor you, I hope you're feeling less sore now! ------------- Mel, Mummy to E: 6, B: 4 and:

I just took the plaster off and there is a little mark (a dot) where the needle went in. The nurse said that if any spilt then it would leave a mark on the skin but nothing spilt. ------------- I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived! |

I have decided (and I hope my dr will agree) to keep having them (the jab's) if they help. I hate the new giant tablets I have been given to take and they aren't subsidisied so they will be costing us $20 a month and I will probably have to take them forever now and we can't really afford that much at the moment, and the jab is costing $4 for 3 weeks worth. It feels a lot better today. ------------- I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived! |

Ouchies! The fact that you need iron shots might answer the other question that you asked me on Thurs tho, I'd say the answer would definitely be yes. ------------- Maya Grace (28/02/03)

I asked my dr and I don't qualify as my platelets are fine (which surprised me as they are usually low as well), so he's got me an appointment with a woman too talk over options. ------------- I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived! |
