    Are you ILs regularly taking Iron, Calcium or folic acid tablets ?
    I am not taking anything regularly. Iron tablets increase constipation for me. Tried eating lots of fibre rich food , water, etc but constipation is still not gone.

    By the way, do doctors give any vaccines during end of 2nd trim or 3rd trim ?

    I am taking all three regularly!
    Iron tablet has been made twice a day because of lower hemoglobin count in blood. :-( Somehow managing it!
    Calcium tablet has no issues for now, just need to time it away from Iron tablet!

    I had two TT Shots. Do mean this one? No other vaccinations for now!

    I have my doc appointment tomorrow! Hope it will go well!

    Take care.

    @Deepa,
    Congratulations and Welcome to the club !!! Your daily diet sounds very good to me.

    @Vasumathy,

    The good news is baby is doing good. Take rest and do not worry about anything. Stay happy.

    My latest update :

    Faced hemorrhoids(piles). It is better now.
    3 days back I started calcium sandoz tablets. I hope I am not too late in starting these tablets.
    I have not been given TT injection. I am planning to take it in 7th month.
    I hope that is also ok. My current doctor is not good at all. I can change the doctor next month only. So then,hopefully , I will be given TT injection.

    @all Due Date ILs,
    Happy 2nd trim. Enjoy it !!!

    Hi everyone,

    How are you all doing?

    Vasumathy - take rest, everything will be fine. I was put on bed rest for first 3 months for my first child due to bleeding issues. Then I was fine afterwards. So follow ur doctor's instruction, ull be fine.

    my update - I might have to take iron pills but my dr will wait for another blood test and decide bec of constipation. My scan went well, tech said it was not clear first bec of baby's position. Then she was able to take it.
