New Moms: Get your Iron
New mothers who suffer from iron deficiency anemia may not bond as well as they should with their infants and that can disrupt the child’s normal development, according to a new report. Out of 81 women who participated in the study, published in the Journal of Nutrition, anemic moms tended to relate less well and be less responsive to their babies after a 10-week evaluation period. After nine months, anemic mothers took a more negative outlook and set fewer goals for their children compared with moms who anemia had been corrected by iron supplementation.
