Hi girls,
Thankfully this is the least embarrasing way to get help to a common pregnancy problem.Prior to becoming pregnant i went to the loo for number 2 every day. Now I'm struggling with going once every three or four days and am in a lot of discomfort. I worked in a pharmacy for ten years and during pregnancy we would recommend actilax or lactulose. I can't stomach either.I'm 14 weeks pregnant and just wondered if any of you know of any pill/tablet i can take to get me going. I'm drinking lots of water and chewing extra because i thought the nutrasweet would work-but still nothing. I bought prune juice tonight and really struggled to swallow it as it partially bounced on the way down but within ten minutes i had thrown up the entire lot. Not as bad coming up as going down i might add. That smell!!!!I dont think i'll ever drink muscat or port or eat raisins or prunes ever again. It was awful.If anyone can offer some insight i'd be very grateful.
