constipation

[serenitylove]

grrrrrr im suffering with this again no matter how much fruit n fibre etc im eating but im getting scared to push that hard when i do go sorry tmi is anyone else suffering from this it was my first symptom weeks ago got better than came back

 

[Mervs Mum]

Dont push! You'll risk getting piles and you dont want them and especially not so early on!

Drink LOOOOOADS of water. Fresh orange too. If you get where you havent been for days, see your GP for some lactulose - it's a very gentle laxative and safe in pregnancy.

All Bran works for me even when I have stubborn constipation!

i am always constipated sometimes i cant go for a whole week it really annoys me, had extremely bad piles for months after i gave birth to my son so i am really dreading it this time cause i know its gonna happen again x

Iv'e been getting this too, two days ago , I brought some prune juice but then read it had no fibre in it, so it must just help by being a fruit juice I guess, any one know if this works?

I don't know if I fancy all bran RosiesMum! I'm gonna try weatabix first , and I am probably not drink ing enougth

Lets hope we all unbung soon!!

I love All Bran with honey on it - I think its quite nice

 

[JJ Mum]

RM - Oh I hope you have milk on that too, not just honey!
Can't believe you like it - it's like mouse droppings

I have the same problem, and have bought weetabix but fear that the all bran will have to come out if weetabix fails.
