Firstly I'm sorry but this is going to have TMI. I'm now 10 days overdue and not being induced until Sunday and for the last two weeks I've suffered really bad constipation.
I know you have it throughout your entire pregnancy but this stage is horrendous, the back ache I'm getting from not being able to go is so bad and embarrassing I'm having to lie to people and say it must be slow labour because sometimes I can't even stand up straight , I'm getting overwhelming urges to use the bathroom and make a run for it then sit in agony for sometimes 30 mins with no joy.
Can anyone help with advice or natural remedies are you allowed to take any type of laxatives ?
I'm just afraid when they do induce me I'll not know the difference in the cramps I'm getting ... Silly I know but I'd be great full of any advice.
Thanks
