Re: Any alternative to iron supplements

Iron killed me too. I take it with 300 mg of colace...well, I dont take it anymore, one dr told me I had to, the other said that even though my iron was low, that was normal for pregnant woman (so of course I decided to listen to her).

It took me at LEAST a couple of days to have the stool softener work ( sorry TMI, but I had to use an enema---thats how bad it got). As far as the green, I know it is normal for it to turn black, but I have not hear about green.

Feel better. Hope you get relief soonChat Icon
