I'd ask your doctor about taking benefiber. Are you drinking enough water?
I'm drinking a ton of water. I called the dr but since I haven't had my first appt yet ( sept 16th ) they can't tell me if it's ok or not. I have gone in 3 1/2 days and I've had a hemroid before and it was unbearable. I'm afraid of that happening again.
Hmmm, yeah you definitely wanna go soon. Pregnancy hormones have a wonderful way of slowing down your digestive system. Are you taking prenatal vitamins that have probiatics in them by chance? I happen to find a prenatal with probiatics & thankfully I haven't had this issue.
I wonder if eating a fiber one bar would help too?
No my vitimans don't have probiotics in them but I will go get some today! Also, good call on the fiber one bar. I will be getting those also! Thank you for the suggestions
I'm telling you I just went this morning after being constipated for the last 3/days 2 tbsp of virgin olive oil...works super fast..was able to go 5 mins after taking it!! Yes it tastes gross but if you hold ur nose then take a drink ...it works I promise you :) I didn't believe it either.. But now I know!!
OMG the olive oil worked within minutes! I took it like a shot with a chaser! It tased terrible but who cares, it worked! Thank you so much for the suggestion
I've been pretty constipated myself ever since my job moved to a new location back in OCT and being pregnant is definitely not helping!! I'm going to try the virgin olive oil!! Thanks for the tip!! Lol
I have been told pear juice and all brain cereal. So far so good. I normally suffer from constipation so its very difficult for me to find something that works straight away.
Good luck...I know how annoying it could be lol
