Oh my god soooo much!! That’s easily my worst symptom. I take stool softener every day and also mix miralax into my drinks. We are supposed to use stimulating laxatives but stool softener is fine. You can also do just saline enemas. I’m sorry! Hang in there mama!

Perfect. Wasn’t sure what to take since I’m too early for an appointment. 7 weeks Sunday! Thanks to so much for the help my poor back

Sorry meant ***arent supposed to use stimulating laxative. Just stool softener

I have IBS so being pregnant just exacerbated it and I couldn’t poop that much for two weeks. Two cap-fulls of MiriLax helped that so much lol
Edited to add I was advised to do this by a doctor
I did that for a few days

Take fiber and increase your water intake. Rub your belly and squat to help.

I did at first. I’m taking a prenatal called perellel that is supposed to help with digestion.
