This might be tmi but I'm really constipated and i dont know what to do, any advice?
@minderella15, just don't expect it to work like a medicine. Natural ways are good but may take some time, if nothing works, try medicine safe for pregnant, but still drink water .. Hope you'll feel better soon :)
@stacy_, okay thank you so much I was worried about that! Hopefully it's better by morning! Thank you for all your help I'm definitely going to try what you said!
@minderella15, it's not bad for baby, it's just uncomfortable for you. Don't stress. Baby is growing and pressing on you intestines, so you should have a really-really healthy lifestyle to avoid constipation :)
@minderella15, I know what you feel, sometimes I forget to drink water or I eat less fiber and get this problem. You can also buy fiber and add it to your tea or coffee. Just try with water first and relaxation. The more you stressed, the more your muscles are not letting it go. Good luck
@stacy_, yeah I'm trying to be as patient as possible lol. I'll try that too! I work out a lot already so I'll definitely go for a long walk in the morning! It isn't bad for the baby that I'm constipated right?
@minderella15, be patient, working out also helps .. If you can do it. Walking works to, but usually it's long walks that help
@stacy_, I'll definitely try all that I'm desperate now lol thank you!!
Lots and lots of water usually help me. Add foods rich with fiber. I would also make a tea from dried prunes and drink it after breakfast and then sit still (read a book, for example) for some time. Not sure why, but it helps me.
@yahuahsdaughter, I'm gonna try that! Thank you!
drink watee with ice and watermelon
@dnhmommy3, what toxins?? Sorry if I sound dumb I've just never been constipated before! So if I have a lot of fiber and those juices it should help everything come out?
@jennaann, yeah I heard about that I'll have to try that! Thank you!
if your constipated most likey it wont come out naturally amd the toxins could start seeping out
i tryed alot of things and prune juice was the only thing that worked for me but it was soooo nasty
@dnhmommy3, thank you I'll have to try it! Is it bad for the baby if I'm constipated like would it be bad if I just waited for it all to come out naturally?
I eat really healthy and I get crazy constipated, my doctor prescribed a stool softener for when I need it
