Can a pregnant woman give blood?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
No: pregnant women are already relatively anemic and the cardiovascular system is under some stress with a growing fetus. You can't give blood.

Not wise idea: You are already sharing your circulation with another, and many women become physioloically anemic, so doing best for baby would be to not further tax your system and general health. Donate after recovered from delivery.
