  If you do not go soon, you will start to vomit feces - not pleasant.  My mom had a blockage and had surgery to remove her small intestine.   Blockage is serious.  
    A Tablespoon of Epson Salts in a glass of warm water will usually unstop you.
     The bomb:  Prune juice and Milk of Magnesia will also unstop you.

It sounds like u have sa blockageband some is seeping around. If no relief from laxative or stool softner, you may need a fleets enema or a soapy water enema. Call your doc. Good luck.

As you have not had a bowel movement for over a week and you have mucus coming out when you let wind, I suggest you make an appointment to see your doctor urgently.

It appears that you have a blockage and require help with this as well as being investigated to find the reason why this is happening.

In the meantime, make sure that you have a healthy and well balanced diet with plenty of fresh fruit and vegetables and drink plenty of water.  Doing some for of exercise like walking will also help to get the bowels moving.

At things are at the moment, you do need to see your doctor urgently.

Best wishes.
