Im barely 6 weeks and suddenly my stomach is so off, going to washroom feels like a struggle. Never had this issue before. Is constipation normal this early ya should i be worried? anyone else?
Same here, I am currently going through this and it is so frustrating! I feel heavy all the time. Does anyone else get bad stomach cramps with this? I hope it gets better in the second trimester.
Yes, it absolutely does. The hormonal changes slow down your digestion. Drink at least 3 liters of water daily and don't sit in one place. If it gets too painful, ask your doctor for safe syrup, don't self-medicate.
It's a double whammy when you have morning sickness and constipation together. I couldn't even drink water because of nausea. Try small sips of warm water and coconut water, it really helped soothe my stomach.
Yes, it happens. Instead of buying expensive fiber supplements, just increase natural fiber like oats, green veggies, and drink warm water. Save that money for your upcoming scans and hospital tests which can get costly!
Omg yes, totally normal! Don't stress too much, it's just the progesterone slowing everything down. Drink lots of water, walk a bit, and maybe try eating some high-fiber foods. It will pass!
I completely understand how uncomfortable and stressful this is. I used to worry so much thinking something is wrong with my baby. But it is a very common early sign. Just be gentle with yourself.
