Constipation Remedies?

Question

I'm 10 weeks +1 and I am so constipated!!!!! It's is making me absolutely miserable. My doctor suggested Colace and it helped the first time, but now it's not really helping. I've been drinking a ton of apple juice and eating grapes! I'm also exercising regularly!

Anyone have any suggestions on staying regular??

Answer

Drink plenty of water - try to do a gallon a day. And milk of magnesia. It's pregnancy-safe. I was backed up, did one dose of that, and a few hours later was DEFINITELY not backed up.

Answer

Eat some Taco Bell. That makes me go every time!

Answer

Spicy foods help me

Answer

I take Miralax in grape juice every day until I have a movement and then back off until needed again. I lived on the stuff as a kid and love that there's no taste or grittiness.
