My midwife's office called today. My diabetes test turned out fine, but my iron level was not so good. I need to bump it up big time. 325mg twice a day is what they are suggesting. Looks like I'll be adding that in to my ever growing pile of pills. Maybe getting the proper amount of iron will help me not feel so wiped at the end of the day. It would be nice too if I could finally hear out of my left ear. It is not even cold/flu season yet. This is not a good sign.

I am awaiting my recent iron test, but I suspect mine is low as well. I guess it was "barely adequate" when i was first pregnant, so the doc was concerned.
Also, my doc approved me to get a flu shot. Something to consider. I really don't want to get sick. :-)
