Starting vitamin regimen
I received my Vitalady vitamin shipment today (well, except the B vitamins...they're backordered). I've been taking multi's and calcium citrate since surgery.
Do I just jump right in? I ordered the tender iron and mag oxide to take with it. I'm afraid it will constipate me, as prior to surgery I always had that problem. Is it best to ease into it?
Advice and experience welcome!

I'm a newbie too so I can only tell you what I know.
Do NOT jump right into the irons. I mean ok, so you can but your poops gonna be funky and possibly constipate you. Ease into them. I jumped right into them and freaked out when my poop looked like green tar. I called my dr crying, I swear the nurse giggled at me when I told her about my vites. lol
After my iron episode what I did was add a new vitamin every day. Some days I added two depending on what it was and how I felt. Make sure when you take your iron it's with vitamin c (if it's vitalady's Tender Iron (big reddish orange pill) it already has vitamin c in it). Follow the directions on vitaladys schedule for timing of iron.
The vets should be in here soon to tell you what I'm sure I missed or have better ideas for you.
Good luck!
