tmi but.....how can I beat constipation?? :O . every morning I feel yaaay need to go then BOOM!! nope,got to the point where I'm actually eating foods that WILL help and still nothing,don't want it to effect my pregnancy :'( . isn't sore or anything but it's got the point where I'm close to asking a doctor is this safe . you read so many confusing things that that say you need to call midwife if you get to a week plus without passing,then others say it's fine it's just your diet so change it. ahhhhh whole day is being confused already with my dates changing AGAIN. help what did you guys do to help?? and once again so sorry for tmi =-O
Your not alone, I go up to a week with no bowel movement. When I do go I'm hardly getting anything out cause I'm to scared to really push in case the baby gets pushed out, tmi I know but I'm only 8wks so I worry. lol xx
@mioaurellia, aww perfect will pick some up asap then,definitely on the shopping list this week then. thanks for that xx
@gillibean, It's a orange flavored Fiber drink, which is safe during pregnancy. You can get it in any supermarket, Tesco ,sainsburys, etc 😊
Yaaaaay!!!!! finally!!! I went ahhh relieved isn't the word ate more weetabix had a coffee and drank juice yaaaaaaaaaaaaay!!!! thanks girls . but will still say to dox etc as 5 days is to long to go without. xx
@angie87, thanks you girls help with making me feel better and great advice. actually get stressed now when I can't go,and don't want to hurt baba by pushing to hard. jeez.xx
@bl1995, .yeah I get that In morning and think yass this is it then nothing I sit for ages,and I even sweat a bit due to stressing,I now eben out chilled music on lol to help me,doesn't help when my kitten always scratches at the door mind you haha. yeah going to call dox see what they say,even go to my local chensit and ask.xx
@gillibean, poor you. If it doesn't get any better it's probably worth mentioning to a doc or midwife as they may be able to do something for you xx
@angie87, had them not long ago and will try fruit juice to,have apple juice there so plenty of that. least us mum to be/mums cab talk about this without getting weirded out lol. sore when I go so if I can today will call dox see if I CAN take anything to help it. don't know why it's sore when I DO go,not my belly but back jeez xx
Horrible isn't it! I feel for you as I get the same and it gives you right belly ache at times! If nothing helps I'd just ask to speak to a doctor and see what they suggest! Xx
@bl1995, I've tried eating my weetabix and still nope :'( getting annoying now tbh .I seem to be getting this for nearly 5 days at a time and when I do go jeez it's sore,hurts my back and scare to push tmi. will try shreddies later and see if that and the coffee helps :-\ just want to go sooooo bad now.
Weetabix and fruit juice worked for me. Good luck as it can be really uncomfortable xx
thanks for replying @jem29. will try this as I usually hate coffee but since falling pregnant I seem to love them smell,so will try this ansd take it with me for a walk. thanks x
I get this quite often or did! But when it happened to me I had a bowl of shreddies and it really helped.. I have no idea how or why😂 but as soon as I had a bowl I would go!
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...

Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...
Starting TWW. Anyone else?
I had a stillborn daughter at 38 weeks this passed Nov. This is my second month ttc. (Last month we only tried for like two weeks though). My last and only pregnancy, I got pregnant the first month of ttc so I hope it's quick this time again.
