Gas and constipation relief?

Question

Please help 😖 I hate to talk about it but I'm 11 weeks and I can't get rid of the cramping from gas and constipation. What do you all do for relief? 2 days ago I finally was able to "go" because I took a Metamucil drink the night before but I don't want that to be something I do everyday 😔 I eat mini wheats for fiber every day and I eat lots of leafy greens and fruit but it's just not enough apparently and I'm used to being regular so 2-3-4 Days without going isn't working for me. Please help!

Answer

Exercise, drink a ton of water and stool softener like colace. The fiber will create gas and bloating but exercise should help pass the gas and get your bowels moving. The water and colace will keep it soft as well also eating plenty of fruit. Good luck and I hope it's only temporary. I am 32 weeks and have been suffering from constipation since 25 weeks :( oh and I have learned that extra strength tums are 80% calcium and excess calcium causes constipation. So when the heartburn hits talk to your dr about what they recommend you take other than tums.....I learned this the hard way, trust me!!!

Answer

Magnesium pills. Gets me going every time.
