17 weeks pregnant constipation went away
i am 17 weeks pregnant almost 18 and this last week my constipation that i have had for most of the pregnancy has went away. is this normal? i just figured since everything is getting bigger and resting on the backside that constipation would be worse than ever.
oh... plum smart juice is WONDERFUL. tastes good too. then you don't need expensive pills / powders.
can come & go along with all symptoms. be glad!
Drink pleanty of juice & water. eat lots of fruit. I LOVE eating dried plums & I don't have this problem at all:)

I recently had my first child and in the hospital they gave me the Dr Max Powers 15 Day Cleanse to help get my system flowing after giving birth. I must say that these things worked like magic.
Throughout my pregnancy I took a prenatal vitamin with a stool softener in it but that didn't cut it so I had to drink prune juice twice a day as well in order to stay regular. I took two of the Dr Max Powers 15 Day Cleanse Pills a day for the first four days after giving birth, one in the morning and one at night, and they worked wonders. I was a bit sore and these made going to the bathroom no problem and as painless as it could be. After the fourth day I just took one before I went to bed and kept drinking the prune juice and things still were great.
Since straining to go to the bathroom is bad for the baby, I would recommend Dr Max's 15 Day Cleanse to women who are having trouble with irregularity during pregnancy, I wish I took this with a prenatal vitamin without the softener in nit because I think it would have worked much better, at least now I know for next time!

It means you are eating/drinking just right! we are so tuned to believing that pregnancy is a hard time with a LOTT of uncomfortable symptoms that we forget that our body's wellness quotient can change as we take care of ourselves. Good luck and enjoy your pregnancy!
yes, symptoms come and go. I am just about 18 weeks as well, but I still have constipation! ugh completely normal!
