What Is The Cure For Constipation In 6th Week Of Pregnancy?
This is my third pregnancy and it is completely different than my other two. I cannot seem to have consistent bowel movements and I feel overly bloated. I am only 6 weeks pregnant. I have tried raisin brand, tons of water, and colace and nothing seems to work. Can you suggest anything for me?

Hello,
In this stage, you can take more green vegetables with fiber rich foods to avoid constipation. Ispaghula husk can be taken at bed time for bulk formation. Drink more water as earlier. You should avoid spicy and fatty foods.
If above regimen can't treat your constipation, then laxative can be used after consultation with your gynecologist. Good luck.
