Question

Is it a bad idea to give blood while TTC?

I have been giving blood for years, and going on 1 year TTC. I just decided to stop because it just doesn't seem right. I feel like I need all of my blood for shortly after conception. Am I crazy?

I can't think of a reason not to donate blood while TTC. After conception, your body will create the additional blood the baby needs (around 6-10 weeks).
