how to relieve constipation while pregnant - #24505

Michael

I am feeling super frustrated because I've been dealing with constipation while pregnant for the past few weeks! I thought it was just one of those things that comes and goes, but it’s become a real struggle for me. I'm drinking plenty of water, and I've added more fiber to my diet, like fruits and veggies, but nothing seems to do the trick. I’m worried because I heard constipation while pregnant can be unpleasant and possibly harmful. I tried some gentle yoga stretches, but still no luck. My doctor said it’s common but didn't really offer any real solutions. I read somewhere about natural remedies and am really curious how to relieve constipation while pregnant without over-the-counter stuff. What options do I have? Are there any herbs or specific foods I should be focusing on? Also, should I be worried about any potential side effects from natural remedies? Really appreciate your advice. Just looking for something that works because this is getting kind of unbearable!! Thanks!
