Can Pregnancy Cause Anemia? Posted: 08-19-05 21:32pm
My husband and I are trying to concieve
and I jsut found out the other day while
trying to donate blood that I was
anemic... I have never been anemic
before. Could it be a strange possiable
early symptom?
Just strange that I am anemic all of a
sudden when 2 months ago I was not nor
have I ever been iron deficient.
Some help or suggestions would be greatly
appreciated.
Thanks

Im 37 wks preg and they found out I was
anemic about 3 wks ago yes you can become
anemic during pregnacy but I would guess
during late pregnacy I think it would be
to early for you to become anemic if you
were pregnant and you can be anemic with
out being preg.

I am 3 and a half months pregnant and
started showing signs of anemia 2 or 3
weeks ago. I wasn't anemic before I was
pregnant.

week.....
