Im like 5-6 days before my period and the constipation is really bad, never had it this rough. Could this be an early pregnancy thing or just my usual stomach issues? Curious if anyone else had this before they found out.
It is a very common early sign because hormones slow down digestion. Between meetings, I had to consciously drink loads of water and eat oats. If it's too painful, ask your doc for a safe syrup rather than suffering.
Haan beta, pregnancy mein progesterone badhne se pet saaf nahi hota. Raat ko gungune paani ya thoda dhoodh pi lo, aur papita mat khana bilkul bhi. Agar jyada takleef ho toh doctor se consult karo.
I had terrible constipation in my first trimester, it was actually my very first symptom! I literally spent hours in the washroom. Adding high fiber foods and drinking warm water helped me survive it.
Oh god, the constipation makes it so hard to enjoy all the cravings! It is definitely a common early sign. Try eating lots of salads and juicy fruits to keep things moving.
Yes, progesterone basically freezes your digestive system in early pregnancy. Don't push too hard, it's not safe. Drink lots of water, eat fiber, and talk to your doctor if you need a stool softener.
Yes, hormones cause this and it's quite normal. When I stayed at my mom's place, she used to give me soaked figs (anjeer) and warm milk at night which really helped. Do ask your doctor if it's too severe.
Actually yes, constipation is like the worst part of early pregnancy yaar! The hormones just block everything. Just load up on water and high-fiber foods, and check with your doc if it gets too bad.
It is quite common due to hormonal changes. If your doctor has allowed it, light walking for 15-20 minutes daily can really help stimulate bowel movements. Always ask your gynac before starting any yoga postures.
