You can take colace, its a stool softener and it is safe during pregnancy and its over the counter. Also, make sure you are drinking a ton of water.

What always makes me "go" is fiber cereal. I like cracklin oat bran, its my favorite, usually if I eat a bowl of this I will have to go within 12 hours.

My midwife suggested adding a salad and 15 grapes to my diet every day...it can just be lettuce and dressing lol.....and also make sure to pump the fluids and try a cup of warm prune juice...its not the best tasting in the world but it does help You go! It works wonders for me...I hope this helps you.
