really painful .

hi ladies this is a little embarrasing but a couple of times whilst ive been pregnant ive had really bad constipation , its so painful it feels like im having contractions , last night i couldnt stand up straight and found it very uncomfertable to move around and get comfy , i had a midwife app yesterday everything seems fine and i can feel my baby moving so i know hes ok . i'm fine this morning no pain at all so thats good :) i was just wondering if any of you guys sufferd it to ??

eating prunes/ drinking prune juice helps . Colase twice a day helps..its a stool softener. Milk of magnesia helps with constipation or dulcolax tablets they are available otc. Hope this helps.

In my second trimester I had it terrible.  I seriously didn't go for a week one time.  I was miserable. It was uncomfortable to walk and move around.  Here lately I have been eating ALOT of fruit and it is helping me.  I am having to deal with going too much now.  I have heard if you drink alot of water it will also help.
Glad you are feeling better:)
