my first two pregnancies my iron levels were very low and i needed supplements, however with dd pregnancy by iron levels were low but not low enough for supplements. i have a reasonably good diet and my iron levels are always on the low side. i take all my vitamins with oj to help with the iron absorbtion.
my ob/gyn gave me a leaflet on some good iron rich foods, can't remember most of them off hand but i do remember his nurse telling me to snack on dried apricots - which seemed to have done the trick
