Constipation remedies?

Question

I'm 11 weeks 5 days and have had no bowel
Movements in 3 days. I'm having bad gas pains and feeling really exhausted. Any safe remedies anyone can recomend? I work out regularly (3-4day/week) and have upped my water intake. Any help would be great!

Answer

Prune and apple juice. Lots of green veggies. And drink lots of water.

Answer

I have horrible IBS so I can never go!! I am taking a prenatal with no iron... Also Dr. ok me to do enemas.. Mira lax.. Or milk of mag. Enema and milk of mag are my big suggestions but talk to your OB first. I also take Bentyl for the cramps that come along when I do have to go. As always lots of
Fiber and water. Good luck!

Answer

Normacol plus is amazing. Literally my lifesaver takes about 2 days to kick in but if u take it every morning u should have no issues

Answer

Citracel is my best friend! Drink a glass or 2 every day. And drink LOTS of water throughout the day. DON'T go for any fiber bars or related products. They can make bloating and gas way worse. Instead choose foods naturally high in fiber. Apples, oranges, any sort of mixed greens, beans and such. Hope you feel better!

Answer

Eat some fiber  gummies

Answer

You take over the counter colace (stool softener) or miralax. They're bothe completely safe to take throughout pregnancy.

Answer

Prunes and magnesium!

Answer

For more natural ones, eat prunes and there's some great high fiber cereal from Nature's Path called Smart Bran. Applesauce too, or drinking natural apple juice (try to get without added sugar).

I've been taking colace (recommended by my doc) because I've been really struggling with this for about 6 weeks. I'm 11w6d now.

Answer

I have the same problem. I'm 12 w 4 d. I just went today for the first time in 4 days. And before that it had been a week. U can ask you dr if u can take something. Me I'm just waiting it out. It's common in pregnancy for this to happen
