who else hasn't pooped in a week?

just me?

I'm drinking about 100 oz of water a day and taking colace and still no love.  

Re: who else hasn't pooped in a week?

  • I have the opposite problem, and I eat a ton of cheese. Are you on PIO? Could it be that? I think I would die if I didn't poop for a week. Ugh.

    endometrin. Yup, bloating, stomach distention and constipation are all part of the s/e's but my nurse said early pregnancy can cause constipation too.

    I am hoping my p4 is high enough this week to drop the supps. 

  • not a week but yah, def not regular
  • I'm the opposite! I go all the time lol

  • I haven't had this problem yet, but I've been drinking a big 'ol glass of apple juice every day to help keep things moving.  Have you tried apple juice, or maybe prunes?

  • When I first found out I was pregnant I was going every single day. After about a week, that slowed down and now it's maybe every 5 days or so. If you like cole slaw, that worked for me the day after each time I ate it.
  • I take milk of magnesia if I get like that.  It works wonders for me.
  • Ugh, I'm pooping like twice a day. And still gassy.

    Me too.  I hear constipation's normal, but I go constantly!

  • It's probably every few days for me - it's sad how excited I get when I go. I think I'd rather be regular - maybe it wold help with my 5 month pregnant belly at 8 weeks!

    I'll try the apple juice....

  • Try coconut water, seriously. I have been so regular it's insane. Even more so than when I wasn't pregnant.

  • I have actually maintained my pre-preg regularity.  Don't know if its just that I am not reacting to the hormone this way or if its because I have been taking probiotics. 
    I give up trying to get a ticker.  I have a DD that is 2.5 years old and is awesome.  Maybe I'll add a quote to distinguish myself.  Hmmm.  How about...

  • Me. I blame the progesterone.
