Tired New Mum Blood Test
Tired New Mum Blood Test
The Tired New Mum Blood Test is a thoughtfully designed panel that helps identify common nutritional deficiencies and health imbalances contributing to postnatal fatigue. For many women, the weeks and months following childbirth are physically and emotionally demanding. While tiredness is expected, persistent exhaustion, low mood, or brain fog may signal an underlying issue that needs addressing — especially if recovery feels slow or overwhelming.
This test measures ferritin (iron stores), vitamin B12, and vitamin D — three of the most important markers affecting energy, mood, and immune function in the postnatal period. Recommended by many GPs and maternal health specialists, including those at institutions like King’s College London and advised within NICE postnatal care guidelines, this blood test is an ideal first step in ruling out correctable causes of fatigue in new mums.
What Does It Test For?
This panel checks whether your iron levels, vitamin B12, and vitamin D are within healthy ranges — all of which can drop significantly during pregnancy, childbirth, or breastfeeding. Low levels can lead to symptoms such as extreme tiredness, mood changes, poor concentration, low immunity, and muscle weakness. The results can help your GP or health visitor determine whether you may benefit from nutritional supplements or further investigation, making this test a valuable tool for postnatal wellbeing and recovery.
