Yes I'll call my doctor first thing tomorrow... This is very uncomfortable and I have the worst pains.

My dr  says no laxatives.  If your stopped up try metamucil.  Increased fiber.  If that doesnt work then a gentle stool softener

My doctor gave me the okay to take the fleet enema because I was so constipated. I would talk to your doctor first to make sure he/she says it's ok. Enemas can cause contractions usually in 3rd trimesters though but I would ask doctor first
