My doctor recommended Benefiber, raw veggies, dried apricots and prunes. If I have all of those regularly, it helps.

@kctrejo1992 That was typical for me when I was suffering from IBS. I tried every thing and nothing worked -- except Miralax and lots of water. Give it 12 hours after the first dose.

And before anyone says anything -- yes, it's safe for pregnant women.

@lovelily ok I'll try that. I feel horrible. I'm having contractions because of the constipation last time I went 13 days without using the restroom

Miralax -- and increase your water intake! Works for me and I have IBS.

Try Raisin Bran cereal. You’ll be going in no time. Extremely nasty but high in fiber

Yes! This is my 3rd and I have never had this problem before! What are you taking? My dr told me to use miralax. I have to take it everyday or it does nothing. I also have upped my daily fiber and eat a fiber one bar daily. Increased my water and my walking. It seems to be working a little
