Today I had my 28 week bloods taken and my gestational diabetes test. I haven’t got my results back yet for GD but the blood results show online as low iron. Does this mean anemia? Should I be worried? It is linked to GD? I’m so worried about it all. Any advice or similar situations would help x
Anyone doing the sneak peak gender test? I’ve heard the results can be inaccurate if you’re not super careful with the test and having a male near you while doing the test can affect it! Getting my results today! I’m so excited and praying for a boy! 🤞🏼
