Constipation is just a part of being pregnant as our bodies adjust… im 12 weeks n a few days
@Sarah hi Sarah is the cranberry juice or capsules and how much you need to take in a day ?
@Sahitya cranberry capsules and I took the dosage on the bottle which was 2 everyday. Same with the cranberry pills - the bottle said 1 a day and that’s what I did. Good luck!
I have reoccurring uti’s due to a birth defect in my urinary system. Real cranberry juice without added sugar can help. But best is flushing with lots of water. Constipation isn’t a symptom of one but can be what causes one. The poop puts pressure on the bladder so it can’t fully empty and the stagnant urine gets infected.
You can ask your OB if D-mannose is a safe choice for your pregnancy!
I got 3 UTIs during pregnancy and my doc recommended cranberry and Vitamin C. After taking both of those I didn’t get another one.
