constipation :[ am I the only one?
Please help. This cannot be life is there anything to help? I know of stool softener but is there another way like, something I can drink. I have a hard time with pills.
Try eating bananas they usually work for me or you may not be drinking enough water as well..you can always call your doctor :-) hope you feel better
You're not alone. Happens to almost every pregnant woman, starting at 10 weeks, typically. Drink prune juice, or hot water with lemon. Stool softeners, and laxatives may not be safe for the baby, so I'd just avoid them. Also, be sure that you're drinking the recommended amount of water a day, since it will help flush things out of your body.
