short and sweet the title - unlike the effect it has on me!

it has caused horrific wind and bloating since the first day i took it 3 weeks ago ...i am also taking 2 senna a day and 2 fybogel

i still struggle to 'go' every couple of days but the trumps really get me down

has anyone taken it and not trumped?

or taken it trumped and then the trumps wear off?

it is actually getting me down but gp says its good stuff

experiences please

yep definitely made me trump - and recently they really really smelt awful - oh what sweet revenge on my DH

it is good stuff though and keeps things soft - particularly handy for just after birth when you feel innards will fall out if you push too hard on the loo!

i take only senna everyday but can't really recommend this as had to get it ok'd by consultant first

oh dear ! i am taking senna despite no one telling me its ok!!

yes am 28 weeks preg - and my bowels are going on strike

if you have taken senna so far with no problems then I wouldn't worry - it can sometimes irritate the uterus apparently - a bit like the theory of having a hot curry when you want to get labour started!
