Hate to say this, but you could have a little bit ahead of you before you feel wonderful. ?I felt like crap until about week 15/16. ?If the vitamin makes you that constipated, you need to tell your doc, you definitely should have pooped since Monday.

you can take colace (laxative) or preicolace (which is a stimulant laxative) both are safe.  But you can change your prenatal to one iwth a laxative in it.  Eat high fiber, grapes, whole grains, stuff with pulp etc...

That happens to me, so get ready to chug Prune Juice and Apple Juice!!   Sometimes corn on the cob helps too.

I'm 15 weeks and still feel crappy most days, no pun intended.  I'm waiting for that 2nd trimester point where I feel fantastic . . . everyone tells me about it.  I want it now!
