Low iron levels during pregnancy?

I have 13 weeks 2 days pregnant and I can not get enough iron in my diet. I do not really like to eat meat, as thought eating a dead body makes me feel a little bad. I do not like blood and the idea of ​​eating what freaks me out. Do not put the amount of iron in things in the nutrition charts and I'm very confused. I know that there is iron in green vegetables, but there is iron in all green vegetables (eg green peppers) and the amount of one day I wanted to eat? My blood results are obtained in a few weeks, but I can not wait that long. Does anyone have an answer to my question as I am really worried about hurting my baby. My sister said the baby just took all the iron from me, but how long will it take? I'm worried and confused …

I had low iron during pregnancy, iron count falling to only 6 grams. The baby was fine .. that I just started it. Spinach and broccoli are excellent for iron, but they gave me iron pills easy pregnancy taking during my pregnancy that he bought a backup.
