Suggest Eating Habits For An Pregnant Anaemic Patient.

I am anaemic and 2 months pregnant. I have no appetite and doc says I am underweight. Doc says to pep up my blood but I do not have idea what food to eat to increase my blood production.

What are the worst consequences if I am still anaemic in the advance stage of pregnancy?

I am very afraid.
