Constipation. Argh!!!

Hi, Ladies!

I could really use some advice on what you do as a natural constipation remedy.  I believe in holistic medicine and really do not like to take any kind of pills or over the counter drugs unless there is no alternative.

I've never had a problem with constiptation... I've always been one of those people who is pretty much on a schedule, lol.  But it's been three days and I'm really starting to get uncomfortable.

Thanks a bunch for your help!

Drink lots of water! Are you eating high fiber foods??

Yes, and yes!  LOL.  I eat a lot of fresh fruits and veggies, whole grains, etc... and drink a lot of water.

my surgeon recommends 1 Activia every day.

I've heard good things about that.  I think I'll give it a try!

Drink water like a fish.... and eat an activia yogurt once a day (OB and surgeon's suggestion). 

The yogurt has been a life saver this time around, the constipation with this pregnancy is way worse than with my twins.

Thanks for your suggestion!  Lots of people have recommended Activia, so I think I'll go buy some.

I've had a hard time this pregnancy with constipation. I eat every morning mini wheats LOL! And it SO works!!! Try it!
