Any suggestions for things i can take or for constipation while pregnant...& before yu guys say ask my doctor...i dont…

Citrucel works like a charm for me. Its not gassy or bloaty, the taste is good.

@jasminemb92, u can hardly feel it to be honest. It about like a straw maybe smaller and about 2 in long but u don't have to stick the entire 2 inch in. If u get n the position it tells u to its actually relaxing and u can't feel it go in u get on all fours like a dog to put it in I can hold about 4 min only bc I have done it quiet often as soon as I get most of water in I put my elbows on floor and lay face near floor so gravity can help. U could buy one and just try like half that's what I would do. I know it sounds crazy but it's really not a big deal to me it's the safest bc it's just water is all it does is softening the poop that's stuck in there. At least u know nothing is getting to ur baby like if I were to take something orally. Once u get regular I would stay start adding chia seed and psyllium husk to ur food don't do to much bc u could loose weight I have did it for years before pregnancy it's totally natural and healthy

Miralax

@txyogagirl eeeeck i dont even kno if i can do that ! 😂 does it feel weird ? like the water...ive done anal before (sorry tmi) but i imagine its not the same

I agree with @dimples1 I would do something natural. I would use a salt water enema u can make it yourself (water and salt) or buy the box from the dollar store that says saline enema it works great my dr said not to use when preg but they also tell u not to do lots of other things but yet they tell u nothing about diet so I don't really listen to dr. If u feel comfortable sticking water up ur butt I promise it will work it doesn't get more natural than that anything u consume from ur mouth will have an effect on ur baby bc it goes through your system and to baby it only takes about 1-2mins to wk the longer u hold it in the better

@mommy2babyg thank yu

magnisam citrate its like sprite

@mommie2be.dec18 lol well thank yu

@dimples1 thank yu !

@jasminemb92, hope u feel better soon

Yeah I understand that's how it got for me and the doc tried to prescribe Miralax to me but I know taking laxatives for too long can make your body dependent on them so I just added those couple of things and seriously it's been so worth it, wayy better then that Miralax too, the miralax made my stomach hurt

Prunes.

@mommie2be.dec18 omg yesss i havent been able to relieve myself for a few days now...i started bleedin the other day & i feel like wen i try to go i be strainin & makin the bleedin worse...

dried prunes aren't as bad as the juice and you can cut it up in oatmeal with your other stuff and it's not bad that way, plus Apple's and make sure lots of water even if you eat the right stuff if your dehydrated it can cause constipation, I started having really bad constipation and so I started eating just 2 dried prunes like every other day or even every couple days and incorporating an Apple in between the prunes plus chia seeds and I've not had any more problems in fact I'm more regular now then before I was pregnant! I'm 33 weeks:) good luck girl hope that helps constipation really sucks
