Should you take I MOM Tablets While Pregnant?

The body requires iron to make haemoglobin, a protein in your Red Blood Cells (RBC) that aids in bringing oxygen to the organs and tissues for both you and your child. As you are supporting the growth of your baby, your body will automatically produce more blood; however, to do this, your body will require additional iron. If your diet doesn’t provide you with enough iron to produce the correct amount of blood for two, you are most likely going to be asked by your healthcare provider to take some additional iron supplements to get that extra blood flowing.

When does Doctor Recommend I MOM Tablets in Pregnancy?

The prenatal vitamins that women are advised to take during pregnancy all contain the needed amount of iron in them. Apart from this, it is best to gain the required amount of iron through a balanced diet that is rich in the element. There are times, however, when your doctor may inform you that you need to take an additional amount. The reasons for this will be different for each woman, but it is most commonly found that women who live in places where anaemia is prevalent will undoubtedly require additional iron supplements.

If you are vegetarian or vegan, it may increase your chances of needing to take iron supplements as your diet may not be able to provide you with the desired dosage on a daily basis. Always inform your doctor if this is the case so that your doctor can perform regular checks on your iron and hemoglobin during your routine check-up and will be able to tell you if you need iron tablets in pregnancy and when to start.

Side Effects of Consuming I MOM Tablets

While iron is a much-needed element for pregnant women, too much of it can cause some unpleasant side effects. These are explained below:

1. Dark Urine and Stool

2. Discomfort in Gastrointestinal Tract

3. Constipation

4. Nausea and Vomiting

Things to Remember

Here are a few things you should keep in mind when taking iron supplements:

·         Drink plenty of water

·         If you experience the unpleasant side effects, then taking it with meals may be better than on an empty stomach

·         If the side effects are still present, take the dosage in two halves during the day

·         Ask your doctor if it is all right for you to take a stool softener if you really need it

·         Do not take the supplements unless prescribed by your doctor as too much iron can cause high blood pressure and a baby too small for its gestational age.

Iron Rich Foods for Pregnant Women

A diet rich in iron is better for pregnant women than relying on supplements. The following are foods rich in the element:

·         Soybeans

·         Lima Beans

·         Lentils

·         Kidney Beans

·         Oysters

·         Raisins

·         Beef Liver

During pregnancy, it is best to always consult with your doctor about any supplements or medications that you may want to take, even if they are herbal or generally said to be good for you. This is because each woman will have different requirements based on their bodies.
