Answer 1

if your anemic and have been given iron supplements it might actually take a month for the mineral to start building in your system.....eat green leafy foods, red meat, and continue the supplements....good luck!

Answer 2

Those are classic symptoms of anemia. It takes about 2-3 weeks for the iron supplement to kick in. Eat lots of dark, leafy green veggies. When you take the iron supplement, take it with a glass of orange juice or with a Vit C tablet to increase absorption. Avoid taking it with milk or dairy products as the iron will bind with the calcium and just sit in your stomach.

Rest and take it easy.

Answer 3

Yes, being anemic will definitely make you feel like that - weak, dizzy, and tired all the time no matter how much you sleep!!  

I was borderline/slightly anemic for parts of my pregnancy and i could always tell when my iron levels were too low because that would be when i was SO TIRED and SO FATIGUED.

Good Luck!
