Third trimester and the constipation is honestly the worst part for me right now. Drinking water, eating fruits but still struggling. What actually helped u all? Need some real tips na, im tired of this.
Oh, don't stress too much about this, we have all been there! Just try having a glass of lukewarm water with a bit of lemon in the morning, and do a 15-minute slow walk after dinner. It really helps keep things moving!
Try drinking warm water and eating green veggies, but if you have severe stomach pain, please tell your doctor. I had some complications because of ignoring severe constipation, so do keep your gynac informed.
Constipation can make you strain, which feels very scary when you are pregnant. Please drink plenty of water and eat soft, home-cooked foods. If it doesn't get better, talk to your doctor so you don't have to strain.
See, simple lifestyle changes are the only real cure. Stop eating maida and outside junk food immediately, and drink plenty of water. If it still doesn't clear up, ask your doctor for a safe stool softener.
I am in my 20th week and facing the exact same issue, it is so frustrating! Did your doctor suggest any safe syrup or fiber powder? Let me know if anything worked for you.
Don't worry, this is very common during these months. Just increase your water intake to 3-4 liters and eat high-fiber foods like oats and apples. It will get better soon, just avoid taking any laxatives on your own.
