Ask your OB. The practice I work in says no laxatives. The practice I went to for my pregnancy said MOM was ok, and I used the crap out of it, no pun intended.
If you are severely constipated you can Magnesium Citatrate. I was constipated for almost 2 weeks w DD and I was throwing up because I hadn't gone in so long. It is safe and works quickly just make sure you drink lots of water with it. The more you drink the better it works. It comes flavored too.
My OB says Miralax is safe and that I can use twice a day if Im really bad or once a day just to keep me regular. It has been a life saver for me I've been pretty miserable lately!

Miralax. But always confirm any medications w/ your doctor.
I'm on Miralax daily, myself, at my OB's rec.
