colace

Hi mommy's. I've seen a couple mommys say they have taken a colace . I have horrible gas and constipation. Is safe to take a colace? Or do I just stick to watermelon,strawberries and bran cereal .

My dr told me I could take Colace every night and I do, but it really doesn't help me much :(

I'm not gonna lie, I don't feel like it's doing much for me right now, ha ha.  I just asked about advice on this in another thread, and some ladies had lots of suggestions, including watermelon, walking, water, fiber.  I'm trying Colace with Metamucil and water and I don't feel remotely regular, ha ha.

Completely safe. My midwife said only take it once or twice a week. I haven't had to take it since stopping zolfran but it worked for me. Call your doctor and just ask if you are worried
