Question regarding blood work

Hello ladies

I was just wondering how often you all have gotten your blood work taken. I am currently 20 weeks and I have only had my blood work done once- when I first found out I was pregnant. Lately I have been more tired than usual, plus my tongue was hurting sooo bad for days- these are both signs of low iron and I'm worried.  I am scheduled for blood work to be done the beginning of June, I'm wondering if I should wait or ask the doctor to take it now.

Has anyone else gotten more tired in their second trimester? I've been so fortunate with no real fatigue or sickness so far...just wondering if I'm just worrying myself.

Thanks for any responses!!

I have only had it twice (first appt and 22 weeks). I opted to go to my primary care doctor to run general blood panel and vitamins since I struggled with low D and B12. I shared this blood work with my OB and High Risk Ob. They agreed with B12 shots and vitamin D supplementation.

Savannah,

Now you're making me curious...I haven't had any blood work yet. I had an appt at 7 1/2 wks and 12 weeks. I will get blood drawn on May 18th, but that is for the CVS testing.

Maybe I should ask...

thanks
