I had the same problem and I'm 24 weeks ... this is my first so I didnt know what to do ... after trying all the options my doc gave me I have found that taking four stool softener a day and using the fleet saline enemas was my best option ... both were approved by my doc and are safe for Baby .. also very cheap at Wal-Mart ... had to use the enemas initially but now I only end up using one about every two weeks and I'm going at least twice a week ... hope they helps

Have you tried milk of magnesia? It's all that worked for me in the beginning and since using it I haven't had a problem
