Since I found out I am pregnant, I haven't been able to poop without taking a laxative (usually ducolax). I've tried stool softeners, more water, fiber rich foods, basically everything the Dr recommends. I still can't go on my own. It gets to the point to where i'm not even hungry because my bowels are so full. Any suggestions? I am in desperate need of some relief without the stimulant effects.(cramping)
