After pregnancy, women should consciously consume more nutrients, especially calcium, iron and other elements, and try to consume as much as possible. The development of the fetus requires a lot of nutrition, and if a woman lacks calcium or iron during pregnancy, it can easily affect fetal development. So, what happens when a pregnant woman gives birth to a baby without iron supplementation?
The impact of women not taking iron supplements during pregnancy on their babies can be divided into two aspects. If pregnant women have already consumed enough iron from food and their bodies are not lacking in iron, there will be no abnormalities in the baby after birth, at least no abnormal situations due to lack of iron supplementation.
Women who lack iron during pregnancy but do not supplement iron in a timely manner can not only cause iron deficiency anemia, but also harm the fetus and easily lead to anemia in the child after birth. Moreover, when a baby lacks iron in their body, it can also lead to lower body resistance.
Female friends should pay attention to iron supplementation during pregnancy and eat more iron rich foods such as cherries and lean meat in their daily lives. Many people believe that eating spinach can supplement iron, although spinach has a high iron content, it is not easily absorbed by the human body. If pregnant women suffer from severe iron deficiency, they need to take iron supplements. However, pregnant women should be aware that they must take it under the guidance of a doctor.
