For those dealing with constipation-

Ask your dr for the prenatal vitamin with the stool softener ingredient.  It really works and you don't need to take any extra stuff.

That's a great tip. That's what I have and it is the best! I haven't had to deal with constipation at all.

Funny how many people on this board seem to be reading my mind and posting about it before I even ask. Thank you!

Of course - right now I am back to constipation then loose bowels then constipation then.. well you get the picture. There really is no winning. I went through the same thing first tri. It is like this whole week has been a first tri flashback.

I've found that Fiber One's Frosted Shredded Wheat cereal works great for preventing constipation.  I eat it every morning with some fruit, and it tastes just like regular frosted mini-wheats.
