    Yep, I take iron too for low energy and for low iron levels, because with ds they told me it was too low the day before i had him.
    I find it easier to take a tablet rather than eat heaps of different foods with iron. I would double check on whether you can take the two together. When I bought my iron supplement the chemist made a point of saying don't take any other pregnancy supplements at the same time.

    Hi,
    My iron levels are 96 and the midwife told me to keep tkaing Fabfol but to also take ferro gard with vit c. She said even though you should eat leafy greens etc, it is hard for your body to absorb iron from some foods so to take a supplement.
