Bowel Problems

[Vicky_Gazerimmer]

Morning all,

I have some problems... again!

Before I discovered I was PG I used to suffer from diarrhoa all the time and couldnt digest certain foods.

However since being pregnant I have been constipated for about 90% of the time. But for the past few days I have been getting terrible stomach cramps very similar to the ones I used to get when I was about to 'blow'

I had them all last night and this morning but I still can't go to the loo. I have taken some sennakot but it hasnt worked yet.

I am so worried that having all this bad stuff inside me, (cause it obvious that my body wants it out) is gonna cause my baby harm.

Is anyone else in a similar situation?

In hospitals they always use peppermint cordial.

Peppermint tea is quite nice too!
