This should have warned me to test for what those reasons could be - instead it was only revealed when I got pregnant.

If he gives you the go ahead, perhaps you can give it one more good attempt, bless you!<br />@AA_MOM: As I said, it was inspired by Ugich Konitari's post, which I have linked to. I'm surprised that you got a fever- perhaps that was a coincidence, since normally there are no adverse side effects of blood donation. I am glad that you followed your impulse to donate blood.dipalihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01070862196307376073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6089956061483501286.post-68600535152496582162011-04-02T14:08:58.968+05:302011-04-02T14:08:58.968+05:30Surprised that this topic had to come up in blogos...Surprised that this topic had to come up in blogosphere. <br /><br />I donated blood last week. I have been wanting to do it since a long time and it never happened for one reason or the other. <br /><br />I was at the blood bank to pick up blood for a family member and decided to do the donation on a whim, it took me 4 days to recover (I got fever too). But the feeling of doing good was very strong and wouldn't mind doing it again :)AA_Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15567530816922483398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6089956061483501286.post-60907844478900828002011-04-01T23:00:00.678+05:302011-04-01T23:00:00.678+05:30You know I used to donate regularly.

Then one time, I got so light headed that I had to be retained and monitored for hours at work and the memory of that has scared me from trying since. Every time the blood donation camp happens, I am tempted to go for it but the fear looms large. One of these days am just going to have to sign up and overcome the crazy butterflies...Sandshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08784622943080136626noreply@blogger.com
