does anyone know what i can take for constipation, i know laxatives can bring on labour and i dont want to do that just yet. dont eat many foods containing bran or fibre (i'm a fussy eater) but normally i'm quite regular (sorry)

any ideas

thanks

Hi I use movicol, it's prescription so ok when pregnant, you just mix a sachet with water and drink one morning and night or more or less as needed
Good luck

about laxatives bringing on labor? Is this something I can try or is it as silly as the castor oil thing which only results in you feeling unwell?

Prune juice. I swear by prune juice, and I actually like drinking the stuff and as for the water melon..its all the water and the seeds that make you go, don't be suprized if you see undigested seeds in the loo. They just help the poo move through.

prune juice? i dont knwo what this tastes like though also lots of fruit * not bananas* grapes are very good apparently ermm i dont knwo unless theres a curry or anything that usually goes through you just to clear you out xx

you can ask for a perscription of lactulose you can vary the dosage i know lots of women who take this during pregnancy xxx

when i had it i ate 2 packs of polo's lol it worked like a treat though!!
