    Probably the iron, its known for upsetting stomachs. I take flintstone's with iron added (these are what my doc told me to take, since most people can tolerate them when other iron supplements do tend to bother people's stomachs). I get the store generic kind and haven't had any problems, and take one in the morning and one at night (two at once makes me nauseous). So you may want to try just one and see how you do. That way you can take separate vitamins for the other things you need, which you could probably find in gummies (I also take a vit B gummy, and a D gelcap, neither of which bother me).

    And try adding foods either naturally high in iron and/or fortified with it, should be easier on your stomach. I add spinach to various things like sandwiches or salads for instance, and Special K cereals have a good amount of iron added so I try to eat it a couple times a week too.
