At 14 weeks 2 days I was hoping this would have passed...literally. but is anyone else dealing with this? Any bowel movements I have makes me super weak. Right before it's exit, my body feels like every drop of blood has left my body and i feel like I'm going to throw up and pass out. Once relieved I'm ok. Even with soft stools...

    Jeepers creepers lady #:-S that sucks. Fortunately I haven't experienced constipation yet and I hope I never do but I am assured by all the women in my life that it's just around the corner :-<

    I suffered horribly with it.
    My diet consists of 2-3 activia yogurts a day. 1-2 kiwi a day, 1 peach a day, and as many of those nasty horrible prune candies as I can handle. I also drink water alllllll day. They make fun of me at work, I have a huge big gulp cup that I refill hourly.
    What finally helped was I started taking my prenatal vitamins in the morning and suddenly, I went!
    If I take the vitamins in the morning they upset my stomach so I started taking at night but that's when the cinstipation started, as soon as I swapped back to taking them in the morning I popped!
    I swear I thought I had a baby bump and then I finally went to the bathroom and now I feel so stupid, apparantly my "bump" was just "storage space"...

    I know! I've stopped taking weekly belly pics bc it goes away once I go. I feel like I've tried everything my doctor has told me. Even colace didn't help...just gave me an upset stomach. :(( never had to deal with this before. And hoping it doesn't last throughout the rest of my pregnancy.

    Is it okay to take Metamucil while pregnant. I'm 12 weeks.

    My mom told me two things to help. If I lay in a warm bath and massage my stomach clockwise, the way the digestive track travels, it helps tremendously. That and have hubby rub the arches of my feet clockwise. I was pretty skeptical but she said that the warm water will help loosen things up with the rubbing, and that the arches of your feet are linked to your digestive track. Could just be a weird thing with my family but I haven't been getting horrible gas pains like I was and I go more often than I was before we started do that :)
