Nausea Due To Iron Supplements
Hi.. I am in my second trimester and started iron supplements a week ago. I get nausea whenever I take iron supplements. Did anyone have same issue and is it compulsory to take iron supplements?
omg same!! everytime i take those supplements, i would feel like vomitting within an hour! and the nausea can last for a good half a day or so...😓 i heard its kind of necessary to take those supplements though. It helps alot in baby's development. During my first pregnancy, the side effects got so bad, i didnt take those supplements for up to 3 days occassionally.

If you’re anaemic, you’d need more iron. If the pills make you very nauseated, you can alternatively eat foods that are high in iron instead. Just google that and there’s a long list:) but if your anaemia is severe, then you may still want to take the supplements so that you can produce adequate red blood cells before you deliver.
