What model of Bluetooth keyboard is it? Is it a rechargeable or a
battery-only keyboard? Have you had the problem ever since you bought the
keyboard, or did it start happening quite suddenly after a few weeks/months,
or after an iOS update. Have you given the phone and keyboard to anybody
else, see how they manage to pair them? I wonder if you need to do something
in the hardware settings. If everything was normal, the pairing once
established should stick, until you tell the phone to 'forget this device'
in relation to the keyboard.

I use the following steps to connect:
Go to settings. Select Bluetooth. Select keyboard. I may have to repeat
this step a few times, and in some cases select forget this device, and
commence pairing from start. I do not use the keyboard with any other
device

Hi Gary,
The Bluetooth keyboard should not be often being forgotten by the iPhone when they've been paired, (unless you ask the phone to 'forget this device'); so that, when the keyboard is switched on again and the iPhone is also turned on again, iPhone knows the keyboard so that it is automatically ready for re-use.
Joe: Are you trying to use the keyboard for anything else besides the iPhone? (If so, then that may be the problem. At least some BT keyboards can't be paired with more than one device at a time. Pairing the keyboard with something else and leaving it paired, will unpair it from the iPhone.)
Could ytou go through the steps you're using to pair the keyboard to your iPhone?

Jackie,
My problem is not when typing, but the next time I try to use the keyboard. I have to go to settings and reconnect the keyboard

Hi Joe
I dom't know if your meaning that your bluetooth keyboard just disconnects while using it. I also have this issue and keyboard is fully charged and batteries are also ok.
I find just asking siri to switch off bluetooth and then tell him to switch it on. I use siri because of being lazy lol
but i find this reconnects it again.
its a pain as generally it goes mid sentence.
