Laxitives?

[AwaitingOurFifth]

What is safe to take ? I'm so constipated, I can't really push right now it hurts so bad. Is it safe to take ducolax?

[mary3058]

My doctor said I can take align probiotics and it has worked for me

[BerLady]

Try miralax.  It's safe during pregnancy.  It's not exactly a laxative,  but if you take with prune or apple juice, it may help

Prune juice

Drink a lot more water and eat raisons and more fibre.

Hi Hun, firstly id suggest that you see your midwife or doctor, in the mean time oranges, prunes lots of water and waking can help wonders.

Try to make it you're daily routine from now until birth to drink at least two cups daily of (organic herbal) fennel seed & rasberry leaf tea.

This is my third kid & I have the same problem that starts as early as 1st trimester. Hope this helps. Good luck

My Dr said Mira lax at child's dose

[joMomrosie]

Try drinking pineapple juice or eat Applesauce.It help me sometimes.And drink plenty water. But again iron pills it was harsh constipation at times.

I had the same question to my doctor. She had me take a gentle laxative pill. And it worked...I didn't go for almost two weeks and was feeling ill and tried everything

What could the oil or laxative

[ericatoday]

Its not good to take laxatives while pregnant. Try fiber powder and lots of water then go for a walk. Thats what worked for me. But no laxatives are not safe. Idk of other laxatives will get into babies system i know castor oil doesnt but that could put you into labor and dehydraye you.

It wouldn't make the baby poo would it?
