Prune Juice for Mum constipation

[KirstyKik]

I hear about Prune Juice for constipation, never thought I would need it but here I am 7 weeks in with my second pregnancy and desperate to get relief from the No Poos! Really not good!

I have bought a bottle of Sunsweet Prune Juice which seems to be the best but not sure how much to take, have some time today to do something about this constipation problem but work again tomorrow so hoping for a quick fix.

Any advise on how much to drink? I have full one litre bottle but drinking that much seems excessive, maybe half the bottle??

Thanks in advance

I gave prune juice to my son recently for constipation. I gave him a small glass (say 200mls) and it worked within 45 mins. I would start slow as I think it can be quite ummm explosive in larger quantities!

A pharmacist once told me 75mls when I had the same problem after just having my second child. I didn't think it was working but trust me it was and I certainly felt it! I think 200mls is too much.

Woopdewoop - it is like rocket fuel isn’t it! My son (12) was fine with that amount, no stomach pain or anything he just suddenly needed to go. I wouldn’t like to advise anyone to take too much though!

Dried apricots and coffee
The equivalent of rocket fuel for the bowels

I think 100ml would be ample to start with. Prune juice is, in my experience highly...........effective.

Is it wrong that I have been checking back to see if there was liftoff

coca cola does it for me one can and watch out!
