constipation 13 weeks

Well I already filed my paperwork if you kniw what I mean lol but im just worried. I've been drinking 8oz  cups of warm prune juice and thats not working like ut used to.
this is the 3 rd time in one week that I really have to push to get stuff out and I dont like it. I feel like im squishing my poor baby. I eat fruits and veggies (oh and sun dried prunes too ). so I really have no idea on what to do. Any advice?

Try not to strain too hard because hemorrhoids are no fun trust me. But I use stool softeners and they really helped. Be careful with the prunes, you don't wanna end up with diarrhea.

Maybe try somethin high in fiber or eat some beans! Also bananas ! And I've heard payaya helps too. I hope you feel better soon .
