What time to consume Iron and calcium supplements

I am 20 weeks pregnant and m taking softeron immediately post bf and post dinner and macalvit 2 tabs post lunch. I have 2 concerns -
1. I am having extreme constipation probably due to iron tabs .
2. Also , I am not able to have milk in night since iron tablets and milk do not go together .
Please advise schedule as how you guys are balancing the time and routine to take iron and calcium supplements along with milk and avoid any effects on bowels.
Thanks,
