I’m almost 38 weeks pregnant and I’m being induced at 39 weeks! At my 37 week appt my doctor said that I needed to have a bowel movement (sorry if that’s TMI)... then he talked about trying milk of magnesia. He also talked about making sure I have a good bowel movement before I am induced. I didn’t ask much more about it (but I will at my next appointment on Tuesday).. but has anyone taken milk of magnesia while pregnant? And how did it work on you? I plan to do a test run of it next week of course (a week before my induction day).. but wondering about everyone’s experience with it!

Edit: my mother went to this appointment with me and she mentioned them giving me an enema before being induced.. my doctor said they don’t do that anymore voluntarily but you can request it... but milk of magnesia sounds a little less overwhelming in my opinion! Haha
