Constipation has become such a daily struggle in this pregnancy, im so uncomfortable all the time. Sometimes the straining makes me worried if it's putting pressure on the baby. Is this something to actually worry about? anyone else?
My gynac said constipation is very common and uncomfortable but it doesnt harm the baby. She told me to up my water, fibre and gentle movement. If it gets really bad she said to ask before taking anything.
It bothered me but my doctor reassured me the baby is fine. More water, fruits, soaked raisins and a little walking helped me a lot. If nothing works for days, ask your gynac for a safe option.
