Hi, The mucus & no stools suggest - bowel infection., which is usually accompanied by pain in abdomen ( colic) Microscopic examination of the stool would help in knowing the cause. Take your doctor's advise. He will examine you ,get you investigated if needful & will give you specific medicines for infection taht is diagnosed. - mild laxative (liquid paraffin ) at bed time helps . Or glycerine suppositories before going to wash room,eases the problem. - diet rich in fibers & plenty of water & regular exercises/walking -help preventing constipation in pregnancy . Thanks. Thanks.
