One way i get myself to take iron tablet and elevit in morning with breakfast, i put them where i make breakfast and have it with milk just before i have breakfast, then i know they have been taken, then if i cant remember, its tough titties for me until next day.

Has anyone tried prune juice - i got DH to grab me some last night when he went shopping for my constipation, does anyone know if it works.

Chris - I know prune juice works for my DS but never tried it myself. I always find dried apricots do the trick for me - can give me bad tummy gurgles tho'.
Taking calcium with iron can inhibit its absorption - better with vit C. That's why I don't take it in the morning cause I have cereal and tea. You think I would practice what I preach to my customers (I'm a pharmacist). I just had a glass of OJ and took it now so I feel less guilty. Now to just remember to take my calcium tonight - I'm hopeless
