Iron shots are quite helpful. Or else you can take your iron supplements with orange juice as it will help in better absorption of iron without the difficulties you are facing. A good diet will also help. Have Palak juice, beetroot juice

U can try to incorporate iron rich sources of food in ur diet. Like pomegranate, drumsticks, spinach, raw banana, plantains. The natural sources don't cause much constipation. Along with diet and one inj shot will do. What is ur heamoglobin status dear? And naysea vomitting will subsude in a week or two since u r already 15 weeks. After that u ll start getting some appetite. Just hang in there have patience. Better times are coming.
