What is the remedy for constipation during pregnancy?
Constipation is troubling me so badly these days, i feel uncomfortable the whole day. Im in my 5th month. What all helped you ladies, any food or simple thing? im tired of this honestly.
I had severe constipation which led to painful bleeding piles. Please don't try heavy home remedies or self-medication, as some laxatives can cause uterine contractions. Ask your doctor for a safe stool softener syrup immediately.
I literally just went through this! Eating 2 ripe bananas daily and drinking 3 liters of water was the only thing that kept me sane. Avoid maida completely, it makes the stool like concrete during pregnancy.
Beta, soak 5-6 raisins (kishmish) in water overnight and eat them in the morning. Also, try adding a spoon of cow's ghee to warm milk before sleeping. It keeps the stomach clean naturally without any medicine.
I felt so uncomfortable and bloated all the time because of this. My doctor suggested a simple high-fiber diet and plenty of water, and it slowly helped. Don't worry, it gets much better once the baby comes.
Buying expensive fiber supplements isn't necessary. Just eat seasonal fruits and drink lots of water. Keep your medical budget saved for important tests and delivery instead of spending on costly OTC remedies.
Just increase your daily fiber intake by eating simple foods like oats, daliya, and green veggies. Drinking warm water in the morning also works wonders. No need to buy expensive things, simple home food is more than enough.
