Congratulations, Michelle! Glad to hear the levels are where they need to be! And I concur about the iron--it can bind you up tight. Keep the roughage going through. I staggered the days I took it, figuring taking it every day meant I wasn't using that much anyway (extra goes through). And folic acid also is a big yes. It's a B vitamin, if you can't use all of it, it passes through (though without the constipation iron causes). Folic acid is inexpensive also.
