Not the same

I'm 15 weeks with a girl and Ive lost 20 pounds and just started showing today.  I've had really bad constipation this whole pregnancy and my mom got me dolcolax.  I took it and a couple hours later it worked but I was bleeding from my butt after I used the bathroom. It wasn't a huge amount but enough to worry me. Has anyone else had this experience?

You're not suppose to take laxatives because it might bring on labor. Mira lax is what I was prescribed

Sheez, I'd switch to fiber gummies.  Those are great, and Ducolax  is so harsh.  I hid the Ducolax they gave me at the hospital.
