I get the constipation too. When there is too much of a back up, I go to Starbucks and get a tall decaf of my favorite coffee. It makes me have to go within hours of drinking it. Best feeling ever!
1-2 table spoon of olive oil every morning on an empty stomach, wait at least 1hour before eating or drinking anything! Every time after that I have to hurry to the bathroom!! Hahahhaaaa! It really works
Turns out the constipation was just temporary, a month or so. I still keep track of my bowel movements though, funny as it may sound. I will look into the fiber gummies though!
I eat those fiber one bars...I have to be mindful to eat then when I'm closer to being off work or on my commute home...because they work well for me...sorry.
Milk of magnesia is pregnancy safe. helps with acid reflux too.
Have you tried fiber gummies? I eat four tummies a day and haven't had much of a problem since!
Drinking warm liquids, like water with some lemon in it, can also help.
Hahaha! Me too! :( i hate it!
Prunes any kind dried or 100% juice works wonders for me and healthy for u and the baby
Thank you! I haven't heard of that option before so I definitely will.
Try a slice of rye bread a day. Its an acquired taste but works in a day or so. Its healthy bread and usually cut in thin slices and thats enough to get you regular again. Best of luck! Im not sure if laxatives can be used during pregnancy and would use that as a very last option if at all.
Thank you! I will try it!
hey!! We have the same due date
I've been having the same issue. My OB recommended dulcolax suppositories or a fleet enema. I've done both and felt so much better afterwards
