hi snacks,

Laxatives are best avoided in my opinion (speaking from personal experience) and they can cause long term problems, and some may cross to breast milk which i'm sure you wouldn't want if BF. But I found an awesome alternative!

Mix about a tsp or a little less (i guess) of bi carb soda with water- and drink rather quicky as tastes horrid, also good for heart burn!! And have it as often as needed.

Anyway thats just my opinion, hope it helps.
