Fiber One bars worked for me.  I ate 3 of them and a few hours later all was good again.

I was like that and didn't crap for like 2 weeks. I went and bought a laxative 16oz drink and drank half. It tasted so gooood like grape soda and it helped! I told my doc cuz at the time I was early in my pregnancy so I only seen my doc once a month at the time. She said GOOD! Lol She's all like that's a long time, you did the right thing!
