    I'm nearly the same way.... it sucks!!! I've bee eating SO much fruit and veggies. Last night I had a huge gatorade and like 6 glasses of water. Still nothing. I haven't had a real bowel movement in like over a week and a half. I don't like using meds or supplements but I'm just about there

    Honestly I got to a point that I had to use a glycerine suppository bc nothing was working! Then I took stool softener/laxative like 3 pills a day and now I am fine. But I feel for you...its the worst!

    I have I even ate a whole half of a watermelon because that would always do the trick b4 I got preggo.. I am amazed with how long a doc will let u go without.. doesn't seem safe.. like for the colan.. or my poor tummy lol I've been drinking a lot of water but nthn.. my mil said drink apple juice.. idk tho..

    You could also try drinking prune juice. It taste nasty but it works.

    Gummy bears work as laxatives to small children so try eating a bag of them...that always worked for me...

    PRUNES r really good actually. Young people thing there for old people but they taste pretty good. FIBER! CHOCOLATE ;) and lots of water. :)

    I have a "green monster shake" every morning. It's 2 cups of fresh spinach, 1/2 banana and 1 cup almond milk, blend well for 90 seconds. It sounds gross but it's really good and keeps me flowing regularly ( :.

    My way works for me. I sit for awhile and relax, not strain and rub my lower back.

    PRUNE JUICE the best. And also try miralax its a powder you can mix it with water or juice it has no flavor and it works great. But ask the dr if it ok to take while pegnant

    Suppositories are off limits to pregnant ladies! Unless a dr tells you in an extreme circumstance don't use them! The effects of the suppos can put you into early labor.
    That is what I learned in nursing school! I thought I would share it with you ladies, and I agree about the prunes! They are aweso/me and they work wonders. I even liked them when I was a kid!
