Morning ladies. Can I take regular doses of lactulose while pregnant? I need to start taking…

I did. x

my midwife said to avoid as can make their intestines weak from the start so in long run baby suffer with constipation and digestion issues further on in life, i had 11 days where i had not been and took 1 teaspoon then. it didnt work. now i have pint of fresh orange every morn and 2 weetabix and i go daily..

she basically said it wasnt worth it in the long run. were talking all time here though, just once or twice im sure will be ok? xx @emmaelaine

Ahhh right @tg123456789 I won't bother then. I just feel so bunged up 😷💩 haha I'll I'll stick to the orange juice & hope for the best xxx

she said it to me as if it was going to be all the time, but if its once or twice then i think it will be ok @emmaelaine i took it the once althoug didnt work haha.

the orange full pint and 2 weetabix has been working over three months now. i think ull be ok just not constantly :) xxx

Thanks @tg123456789 xxx

My midwife advised me 30ml three times a day cause I wasn't moving my bowels for about 2 weeks at a time. xxx
