Another wonderful part of pregnancy! My dr told me to take colace. Its the only over the counter stool softner safe for pregnant woman.
Constipation happens all through pregnancy, make sure u drinks tons of water, fresh vegetables and don't strain! Suppositories work wonders too. I just had my hemroids permanently removed last week. Lived with them for 8 years.
See if ur doc can get u prenatals with stool softner! Ur trying to hard to poo! I did the same thing and my prenatals r a life saver!
