Constipation after birth

I'm 17 days postpartum and still dealing with constipation. I've been able to have regular bowel movements with daily use of colace and stopped taking it thinking I didn't need it anymore. Been in pain all day because I haven't been able to go. Is it normal to be constipated this long after birth?

I had a vaginal birth with second degree tearing and an episiotomy. It's been a rough 2 weeks and just yesterday I started to feel really good until today when I've had constipation.

Any input?? Thanks in advance!
