I need help. I haven't had a bowel movement in a week & its getting to where it hurts. any home remedies or safe medication I can take? laxative maybe?
@blessedmamaof3, @brittany_leigh thank you! I'll try anything just about, as long as I know it won't hurt the little one :)
or apple peels. boil the peels from 2 apples in some water for about 5minutes. remove the peels and drink the mix. it is a natural laxative. my grandma did it for us when we were little and stopped up.
miralax. my ob recommended it for me. its a gentle stimulant and will just soften it so you can naturally go.
Colace is good. Also fiber such as Metamucil is amazing. I got so constipated to the point where I almost passed out from trying to go and it hurt so bad
Apple juice works for me
