Constipation has become a real issue for me ever since I got pregnant, and it's making me quite uncomfortable. What are some safe and natural ways to handle constipation during pregnancy? I need some relief.
Beta, drink lots of warm water and eat high-fiber fruits like apples and papaya (if fully ripe). Don't strain too much in the washroom, ok? Ask doctor if it gets too painful.
I know any kind of pressure or discomfort in the belly can make you feel extremely anxious. Please don't worry, it won't affect the baby. Just stay hydrated and speak to your doctor if you feel uneasy.
Since I had gestational diabetes, I had to be careful with high-glycemic fruits. I relied on green leafy veggies, cucumber, and plain water to keep my bowels regular.
After my C-section, constipation was my biggest fear. Drinking lukewarm water and eating oats daily really helped soften things. Please avoid taking any laxatives without asking your gynac.
Listen, stop eating maida and junk food first. Drink enough water, eat sprouts and high-fiber foods, and walk daily. If nothing works, tell your doc, she will give a safe syrup.
I panicked so much thinking constipation would hurt the baby, but my doctor laughed and said it's totally normal. Just drink water and don't take stress or strain.
