constipated since friday please help

[SamanthaSardinha]

I have not had a bowel movement sonce Friday.  Any advice to get things moving?

Fruit.  Just keep eating fruit with every meal.

Mangos and colace! I went 10 days without going.  It was traumatic!  Now I take a colace everyday and eat as much mango as possible. (The magical poop fruit. As my doctor calls it) most prenatal vitamins are loaded with iron which is what's making you constipated.

Prune juice can help. Lots of green leafy vegetables like kale and broccoli and spinach can help.  Avoid bananas and cheese

Ensure shakes

Milk of magnisia. I use it once a week. And it doesnt cause the stomach cramps most other meds do.

Prunes were a life saver for me !. Either prune juice or the actual prunes.

Watermelon! I had colace prescribed to me because vi didn't go for 10 days. Didn't help. But I ate watermelon and I literally went like 6 times in 24 hours. Its a miracle.

prune juice,  dates, figs and walnuts. all high fiber and also help lubricate your colon especially the walnuts. also to get things going in the morning try hot water with lemon on an empty stomach.

Colace helps (stool softner), a fiber substitute and drinking lots of apple juice...they wont give you instant results but you will get good results at some point throughout the day.  I hope you feel better soon abd congrats on baby.

Try some fiber one bars or cereal.  I also use tea called smooth moves that has seemed to have worked wonders for helping me.  You can also maybe try some apple juice or Gatorade    good luck and I hope you get to feeling better soon!

I take a dose of Metamucil in the morning and before bed at night and it seems to help things along. I feel your frustration!
