Constipation has been really bad this past week and nothing is working, im so uncomfortable. Someone suggested an enema but im scared to try anything on my own now. Did anyone use it during pregnancy, is it safe?
Please dont use an enema on your own during pregnancy. I had some issues earlier and my gynac was very clear that anything affecting the bowel should be doctor approved. For constipation she gave me a safe option instead, so do ask her.
Beta for constipation we used to soak figs and raisins overnight and have warm water in the morning. That helped me. But enema is not something to do on your own, ask the doctor only.
Dont try it yourself, especially in pregnancy. For constipation I drank more water, ate fibre, isabgol, and walked. If thats not helping, your doctor will guide you properly.
