Iron-rich foods are usually recommended for iron deficiency anemia during the seventh month of pregnancy. Pregnant women should consume more red meat, animal liver and blood, eggs, soy products, and other foods that are high in iron and easily absorbed by the body. Although fruits and vegetables are not particularly rich in iron, they contain vitamin C, which helps with iron absorption.
