[diamond232]

Hi kind of embarrassing but I havent opened my bowels (had a poo) for 4 days is this normal what should I do? I'm 11 weeks today

Chamomile tea works great for me. I've had a lot of constipation issues but it keeps me regular.

Some docs don't like you to take stimulant laxitives, so check first. You can take a stool softener, which you'll probably need after 4 days of not going. Also, add a few prunes or prune juice to your daily diet.

Try,fibre an plenty of fruit,or lactoluce,its a liquid lax i took wen pregnant and found it great,can be bought over the counter xxx

Oh if you probably should call your doc too because going more than four days without a bowel movement is not safe.

A cup of coffee a day (regular or decaf) can help too

Try drinking juice and eat some fruit..

Have you tried a couple of fruit cups... I'm told that helps.
