Anemic and iron supplements

R

My bloodwork results came back, and I’m anemic with this pregnancy. It’s not a shock; I’m always borderline, but it’s quite a bit worse with this baby. So, I’ve been told to start taking iron supplements. I know it can cause constipation. For those who have taken iron, what worked best to combat the constipation? I have benefiber on hand. Should I get something else?
