Constipation is making my life miserable since past few weeks, i feel so heavy and bloated all the time. Im in my second trimester. What worked for u ladies? i dont want to keep struggling like this everyday.
Omg I struggled with this so much and felt so uncomfortable. More water and prunes helped me a bit. Does the iron tablet make it worse for everyone or just me? I felt it got worse after starting them.
Beta soak a few raisins or anjeer overnight and have them in the morning, it worked for all of us. Warm water first thing helps too. But if you havent gone for many days or theres pain, do tell the doctor.
My app suggested more fibre and hydration and honestly that combo fixed it for me. I added oats, fruits and a daily walk. If nothing helps after a few days, just message ur gynac for a safe option.
Yaar constipation in pregnancy is actually so annoying. What helped me was lots of water, papaya (ripe one) and a bit of walking daily. The iron tablets make it worse na, so I really upped my fibre.
Water, water and more water, that was my biggest fix. Add fibre like fruits, salad, whole grains and dont skip the morning walk. If its really stuck the doctor can suggest a safe thing, dont take any random laxative on ur own.
