Hi anyone had problems with constipation during your pregnancy. What foods do you recomend I eat to help. The last thing I want is to be constipated during labour.

After the birth of my first son I had ongoing problems with my digestive system. It has taken me a few years to fix it. I eat lots of whole grain foods. Like bran , brown rice, and wholemeal bread. I also eat loats of kiwifriut and green veges. And only drink water. I have been regular during this pregnancy and find that I am not so tired as I used to be when I had problems.

I found that drinking apple juice helped me. Good Luck.

I talked with my doctor. He recommended switching solely to whole grain breads and cereals. And adding raisens or prunes to any salad or dish I made. He also said try to drink plenty of water and green veggies. He also recommended taking a fiber supplement. If your not sure, consult a nurse's line in your area or talk to your doctor. Good Luck

Eat fruit (dried prunes are really efficient!), veggies and drink lots of water. It WORKS. :) Good luck
