Can anyone recommend anything for constipation in pregnancy? Currently 35 weeks!

Sorry for the TMI!

Thanks! x

Fresh orange juice is what helps me or even just eating a oragnge may help, also drink lots of water. Im not sure what meds u can take i dont think there is much if any.

If you can get to your docs, I have prescription Laxido. Does the job!

You can get Luctalose over the counter, also does the job..

Otherwise, All Bran and a loada water usually helps me when not pregnant, I’ve been too sick to eat it this pregnancy so far!

*laxido/movicol & Luctalose are all safe to take in pregnancy
