I was told that I am anemic

I just got myself some iron pills, (I know, I know, should have been doing this all along, slap my hand) but I am worried about getting constipated. I bought some colace just in case but I am afraid to take it. How else can I combat the constipation? Possibly before it starts? (I have already noticed that my stools are turning black after only 2 doses of iron) Also, I understand that u can't take iron with anything. Here is my schedule. I take my calcium, 2 chewables, B12 and wellbutrin in the morning, and then my iron, C, and wellbutrin before bed. Am I doing this wrong? Any answers or suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks
