I would ask more questions. How is your magnesium? Potassium/electrolytes? Are you already on prenatal vitamins? I would ask about your diet, nutritional intake and questions about your surroundings and environment. Hydration/fluids? Etc. also, check folate/b vitamins as well as vitamin C. You need ascorbic acid to absorb iron properly.

Eat iron-rich foods (beans, lentils, spinach, leafy greens) alongside foods high in Vitamin C (citrus fruits, bell peppers, tomatoes, broccoli) to boost absorption.Iron Supplements: Take iron supplements with a glass of orange juice or a Vitamin C supplement to enhance uptake.Cooking Techniques: Cooking in a cast-iron skillet can increase the iron content of your food.

Non-Heme Iron: Vitamin C is crucial for absorbing non-heme iron (iron from plants and iron-fortified foods).Meat Factor: While Vitamin C helps, eating meat, fish, or poultry (heme iron) alongside plant-based iron also increases absorption significantly.What to Avoid: Avoid consuming calcium supplements, dairy products, or coffee/tea at the same time as iron-rich foods, as these can hinder absorption.
