iron help!!!!

Does anyone know where to get chewable iron 'pills'?? Or iron pills that are on the small size?! I just found out I'm anemic and I have a big issue with pillars and keeping them down. So my Dr is letting me look for some on my own. But if not I'll have no choice but to take the ones there going to prescribe me. Lol ugh. Someone help meeeee!!

Try liquid iron! It's not the most pleasant tasting thing, but it works :) my midwife gave me a prescription for it. Ask your doctor to prescribe it or you can go to a health food store and get some. I find that drinking it with juice helps a lot and it helps the absorption.

You can try Walmart! Or any vitamin shop:) I'm sure someone at those places can recommend something. Even talk with your pharmacist.
