sooo…what is anemia?

got diagnosed with severe anemia. doctor prescribed be 65 mg of iron a day and if it doesnt get any better, we’ll do iron transfusions. my only question is, what does it really affect in pregnancy?

my symptoms so far (but honestly most of the time, even before my pregnancy) are insomnia, anxiety, achey body, extreme thirst, and exhaustion.

does it go away? will it affect my baby? im 29 weeks today and just want to hear from other mommas out there.
