How to avoid constipation during pregnancy home remedies?
This constipation is the worst part for me so far, second trimester. I dont want to keep depending on anything from chemist, would prefer simple ghar ke nuskhe. What worked for u all naturally?
Water water water, that's the first thing. Add fiber like fruits, oats, and a few soaked raisins or prunes really helped me. Also a small walk after meals keeps things moving. Iron tablets make it worse so eat extra fiber along with them.
I used to eat papaya (ripe one) and lots of green veg, that softened everything. Also drink warm water first thing in morning. Simple ghar ka khana with fiber works best, dont eat too much maida and fried.
Beta soak 4-5 munakka or anjeer at night and eat in morning with the water, my dadi's old trick and it works gently. Warm water in morning also helps. If it's still very stuck dont take any churan on your own, ask doctor.
Apart from fiber and water, a gentle 15 min walk after dinner really kept me regular. My doctor okayed light walking for me so I made it routine. Pls check with yours before any exercise, but movement honestly helps the gut a lot.
My mom told me to have more buttermilk and ragi, and it genuinely helped my digestion. Plenty of water and a daily short walk too. But if nothing works for many days, do tell your gynac, they can suggest something safe.
