Current bad constipation 27w pregnant

Update: I got very close to going to urgent care, but was finally able to sleep because I didn’t want to go at like 2 am on a Sat. So I was able to sleep until 10 am and when I got up I was more relaxed and had to “help” things along a bit, but was eventually successful. Then it took another two days to get regular again. Thank you for all your comments and suggestions.

Hi, I keep reading blogs on “how to prevent constipation” but that isn’t helpful for me now. I held in a BM earlier today for about 3 hours, and then when I finally tried to go I couldn’t. It’s now 6 hours later and I’m miserable. I took docusate (stool softener) an hour or so ago. I have tried to “get stuff” out but only a little has come out. It is so uncomfortable. Has anyone been through this? I am wondering if I need to go to urgent care.
