I also am pregnant and have low iron and my doctor told me to take Feosol. It is a small green pill, it only costs about $10 a bottle OTC. Doesn't really have any side affects (to me) except you sh!t green, lol.

Try chelated iron supplements from the health food store instead. They are better absorbed by the body and less likely to make you constipated. Blackstrap molassass iron tablets are a good choice. Also, ask the health food store people about Floradix and chlorophyll.
