13wks preg... constipation :-(

[Dozeyland]

Help, so painful, what aids going to the loo!?

I just hate not being able to go, and being bloated :( :(

Prune juice, more fibre, loads of water and I used to go for a swim (or float around) which did the trick. I also bought senokot from the chemist if needed.

foods full of fibre ( dried apricots, dates, prunes) and lots to drink.

I found Fibergel helped - it softens doesn't cause explosions unless you have lots of it.

Ditto. I got Lactulose from Boots which is fine to take in pregnancy. Hope this helps!

Also I eat 2 apples and a few satsumas every day (because I love them too!)

Second vote for lactulose! Also weetabix and bananas.

Cabbage and beans (not together though). You might have to put up with smelly trumps though. Lol

are you taking iron tablets? They caused me massive issues . Switched to Spatone liquid iron sachets and it all stopped.

Satsumas seem to have quite the opposite effect on me at the moment! Might be worth a try. X
