Hi Constipation in pregnant women is a common complaint. It occurs due to pregnancy hormone which relaxes the bowel muscles. I advise you to take these measures. -Eat food rich in fibre (like fruits, salads, green leafy vegetables, prunes, whole grain bread etc) -Drink plenty of water/ fluids. At least 2 liters per day. -Maintain your routine exercise like walking, swimming or other moderate exercises at least three times in a week for 20-30 minutes after consulting with your. Exercise helps to stimulate bowel movements. -If you have started taking iron tablets please stop them and see. because some iron preparations cause constipation. If these measures don t help then use stool softners like metamucil. I hope I have answered to your satisfaction.
