After 4 days of not so much as even a toot... i was deperate! lol
I will do anything!! ty!!
they gave me the "first tri" folder... i'm going to have to look. But i haven't officially met with my new OB (wont until june 8). I will meet with the Peri next week, i'm going to be sure to ask him.

ohhhhh man. There's the issue. I take those like candy (well..not really...but at least every 8 hours i have one ready to put on my tongue)
SOB. lol another double edged sword
I thought bananas constipated you.
Caffeine-free soda (if you're avoiding caffeine) may help too. Carbonation always seems to trigger me.
Dude, yeah, it's the Zofran. Gives me a walloping headache and that + pregnancy = no poo for you.
I swear, my gastrointestinal system shuts OFF at this point of pregnancy. . . I'm on Miralax right now -- and over 100 oz of water a day - and a teensy cup of coffee every morning - caffeinated for regularity. Colace should be safe.
If you want to go natural you can do prunes (4-6 per day worked for me) or pineapple juice. A little lemon water first thing in the morning helps me too.
Is your uterus tilted? Mine sits atop my colon, so there's no such thing as 1st tri pooping for me. . . or at least not regularly. It SUCKS.

I ate nearly an entire head of brocolli one night and had a great bm the next day. So there's that. Apple juice works sometimes for me too.
I'm sure you're drinking enough water, but have more.
PS...holy sh!t...triplets? No wonder your backed up. hehe

Milk of Magnesia worked wonders for me when I had bowel issues in 1st trimester/2nd trimester.
GL!

ohhhhh man. I'm in big trouble!
Thank you all so much for the suggestions and advise. I am def going to go grocery shopping tomorrow and talk to the Peri on Monday.
I'm not giving up my zofran though...no way, jose!
Oh sister! I had two separate 30min sessions in the bathroom today trying to poo! I have constipation anyways, and the phenergan plus PG is awful!!!
I did a glycerin suppository and it did make me go, but it was still tough.
I don't know what else to do, myself! Colace, fiber, what can a girl do?!? Hope you go soon!!!!
Monday morning was he!l for me! I made DH late for work because I was hogging the bathroom. I had to take a break just to shower and then get back at it before work. I finally went but it hurt for the rest of the day.
I stocked up on Honey Nut Shredded Wheat, apples, oranges and veggies, and I'm drinking tons of water. It's helped a little, but man, I'm pretty sure the idea behind constipation is to prepare you for labor! ouch!!
I guess it depends on the person. Works like a charm for me.
Hmm... I think it depends on the banana. New, bright yellow ones tend to constipate folks while a nice, sweet, spotty one will send ya to the pooper in no time
Zofran really is the devil when it comes to keeping it IN your body, in more ways than one.
I second the single cup of caffeinated coffee to move things along.

For me, sunflower seeds and apple juice gets the pipes moving again.
Good luck!
