Oh, my bowels basically went on a strike the day I got pregnant and still haven't returned to work in my 9th month! Yes, it's a very real pregnancy symptom. Keep your water bottle glued to your hand!
I totally understand how frustrating and uncomfortable this feels, dear. Your body is working so hard to grow a beautiful life, and these symptoms are just a part of that journey. Sending you hugs, try to have some warm water and rest.
Haan na, actually this was my first symptom even before I missed my period! Progesterone hormones slow down everything. Don't worry, just drink lots of water and eat fruits daily.
Bilkul, it happens to almost everyone. Eat a pear or apple daily and try to avoid highly processed maida foods. A little walk after dinner also helps clear the stomach naturally.
Yes, it is a very common early sign because hormones relax your digestive system. Make sure you don't skip your water intake and add fiber to your diet. If it gets too uncomfortable, ask your doctor for a safe stool softener.
Beta, this is very common in pregnancy due to body changes. Try eating soaked figs (anjeer) or warm milk with a little ghee at bedtime, it is very gentle on the stomach. Do not take any heavy market medicines without your doctor's word.
