ok ladies im like 4 days constipated

[pritigrl15]

Don't see my Dr until march 12 what the heck can I take to make it safe for me?,all I drink is water that doesn't help any teas or metamusil?

[maw4389]

Try a glycerin supposatory.

[Mommabanielle]

Go get a huge fruit smoothie with extra fiber added (try to get one that doesn't have dairy or sherbet in it...all fruit). Once you drink the whole thing you might go...always worked for me.

[stina_rina]

Lol prune juice and taco bell^ hehe even just a few cups of warm water, fiber food, prunes

[shellmorg1101]

I was severely constipated around 25 weeks. I could barely stand it was that painful! I tried EVERYTHING for over a week..prune juice,colace,chipotle,prunes,apple juice,miralax...nothing. the ONLY thing that helped me immediately was a enema..instant relief! Talk to your doctor about it first tho if nothing else works!

[Brynn_Taylor]

I take colace every morning and night just to keep my bowel movements easy and i take milk of magnesia to gonif i havent in a while. I also do an enema like once a week just to clear myself out. Ive had terrible hemmoroids this pregnancy and my doctor gave me a regimen to follow. I eat a ton of fiber and go regularly which can take a while but once you get it routine its a life savor especially for the first poo after baby.

Grape juice works for me.

[Britt8826]

I drank some hot cinnamon Chai tea, worked for me!

[alara_17]

My doctor recommends prunes. She also said milk of mag is safe to use but to use sparingly. And lastly she said you can use colace but it takes time for it to work.

[tmeranda]

Two warm prunes and water. I also take probiotic once a day. Hope you get some relief.

[Wo0oT7917]

Prune jiice will definitely help and eat alot of salads

[3bgirls15]

After 5 days with no bm my dr said to take milk of magnesium  (got it from walmart). He said to only take one dose every 5 days but it worked for me and was such a lifesaver!!!!

[ladyhawk83]

metamucil in the morning and if that doesnt get things going i take colace. i drink a lot of water and eat plenty of fruits and veggies. it seems i'm just programmed to be backed up while pregnant. ughhh.

[DrKiki2014]

Eat 4-8 prunes and a full glass of water. Works every time for me.

[BELLALUNA2015]

Some warm prune juice...

[emilyas1111]

Prunes and Taco Bell... works every time lol.

[kitcat2015]

Colace doesn't work for me unfortunately.  I've tried it three different times.  I use milk of magnesia and it has me going the next day.

[veronica_12]

Ive always been constipated more before my preg what helps me soo much is yogurt activia brand it has fiber and a natural bacteria that helps u digest not feel bloated and it helps u go to the bathroom i was constipated 2 days ago and i ate yogurt yesterday and by the morning i went to the bathroom and was feeling much better

[love_being_his_mrs]

You can always call your Dr too! If you're not sure or are concerned at all

[AprilBabe26]

A spoonful or two of coconut oil, magnesium powder (i use calm from valley naturals it really helps!), fiber one cookies or bars...drink lots of water, extra walking & moving around helps as well. I've suffered from this too-not fun!!

[dani0314]

You can take metamucil or colace. Apple juice works great but i can't stomach it so i just use the colace

[newmom2b27]

U may also want to increase ur intake of foods with a lot of fiber

[newmom2b27]

Warm apple juice helps me when I'm constipated
