Pregnancy Info HOME

hi it was the same with me only that i had it for 3 months. trust me i couldnt walk from the pain. but i ate applaes everyday and that helped lot. i dont know what happened, but one day i woke up and had to run to the bathroom, and it was purfect. after that i never had constipation again. so i dont know wat happened but apples did help alot. try eating grapes and drinking milk at the same time. that should almost cause diareah. it should help alot. or try it with a pear. tell me how it goes ok?

pshaw, i had it for like a month, so bad that i ripped somethign down there and bleed a little when i went. i'm still recovering. i found that glycerin suppositories were good cuz i wasn't really ingesting anything but it softened it up enough so that i could go. i drink TONS of fluids now (2-3 liters) and eat a high fiber cereal in the morning and i've been getting a lot better.

Sometimes, when I've been "less regular" (not necessarily constipated), I've found that eating popcorn helps. Have you tried that?

interesting theory...i will try it out tonight :-)

I also take fiber supplements-the chewable ones. And you may want to add on a stool softener.

I have never tried alot of the things suggested, but I have done regular dried prunes. They work wonderful! You can almost take too many. I think that 2-3 or 3-4 a day would do it for a few days in a row if needed. These are something that are gentle on you system but really do the trick. Also have done the correctol tablets for woman. I found them to work great too. If 1 doesnt work then try 2 but only after trying 1 first. Good Luck.

with the popcorn thing...i have heard that if u dont chew every last bit....the hard parts in the popcorn might rip u alittle...
