side effects of iron no one tells you about

To all my lovely pregnant anemic mommas out there i'm gonna let you know now, taking iron pills can go 1 of 2 ways. You can either get constipated or you can randomly have diarrhea and extreme stomach pains. Just because it's my luck i got the extreme stomach cramps with diarrhea and let me tell you it is PAINFUL. I literally cry from the cramps.

Be aware and stay hydrated also take the iron with food! The pain last for about 3 ish hours then your back to normal 😉
