We explore if the phase separation or coexistence of the spin density wave (SDW) and superconductivity (SC) states has any relation to the incommensurability of the SDW in the Fe pnictide superconductors. A systematic method of determining the phase separation or coexistence was employed by computing the anisotropy coefficient $\beta$ from the the 4th order terms of the Ginzburg--Landau (GL) expansion of the free energy close to the tricritical/tetracritical point. It was complemented by the self-consistent numerical iterations of the gap equations to map out the boundaries between the phase separation and coexistence of the SDW and SC phases, and between commensurate (C) and incommensurate (IC) SDW in the temperature--doping plane. Our principal results for the sign reversed $s$-wave pairing SC, in terms of the multicritical temperature, $T_c$, the phase separation/coexistence boundary between the SDW and SC, $T^*$, and the boundary between C/IC SDW, $T_M^*$, are: (a) IC-SDW and SC coexist for $T_c < T^*$ and phase separate otherwise, (b) SDW takes the C form for $T_c>T_M^*$ and IC form for $T_c
