[quote=Anonymous]I had low iron toward end of pregnancy, and it has remained something I've needed to watch out for since having the baby. I am a meat eater, but we tend not to eat it regularly. In the beginning I increased my uptake of eggs by eating them at breakfast or chopped in a nicoise salad; but I added tofu to my diet (good in soups, in spring rolls, and it is great when fried and stuffed with pork - I found a great recipe for that, and am hooked), and swapped out other snacks for edemame (trader joe's sells frozen ones that you just have to thaw to eat) and nuts (almonds are a great source of iron; I drank more almond milk, and started adding nuts to my morning cereal and salads, as well).
