Constipation

Anyone else really struggling with constipation? I’ve been taking lactulose for over a month and as of last week fybogel as well but I am fed up. If I’m not thinking about my baby I’m thinking about poo! I’m 19 weeks and still being sick as well, not sure how much longer I can cope with both issues 😞

Are you taking the 15ml in the morning and 15ml at night? The other thing that helped me was sweetcorn. I have constipation so bad throughout my entire pregnancy. It’s only now letting up (36 weeks). Keep going! You are doing great!!

I had to use that and laxido the whole pregnancy

@Amy I’m only on 5ml morning and night atm but tbh I’ve started just swigging from the bottle anyway 😂

@Cheryl did your GP prescribe that?

You can safely take 15ml in the morning and 15ml in the evening. ☺️

Yes GP gave me laxido and senna but never used senna. Alternated the other two.

Yeah it’s horrible. I ended up back in hospital after my c section as it was unresolved. Lots of prunes and OJ helped me x

I know this is a random one but weetabix has changed my life ! X

@Lydia oddly enough I had weetabix for the first time in yearssss this morning hoping it might help! Praying it works 🤞🏻

I feel you there, I'm anaemic so on iron supplements too so making it worse! Lactulose, bran flakes and iron rich cereal bars are helping plus a warm drink in the morning. I'm off tea and coffee but a hot squash is helping me
