what can I take for constipation while pregnant ?

Question

Been constipated for 2 days now, I tried drinking prune juice, eating fruit but it's not working and I heard you can't take stool softener or laxatives while pregnant any other natural remedies ?

Answer

Drink a lot of water and more water and more water. My doctor said I could do an anima but I chose to drink water and wait a day or two. You can always call your doctor to find out what you can do.

Answer

I've been eating those fiber bars. Seems to be helping.

Answer

Warm prune juice with a pat of butter (or one line on stick butter) melted in it.    That should open ya right up

Answer

I eat fiber one bars and my doctor said that stool softeners are ok. No laxatives because they can be too harsh and cause dehydration

Answer

My doctor said taking something like miralax is fine, so that's what I use

Answer

My dr told me to take stool softeners.
