Another wonderful part of pregnancy is getting backed up. What works for you ladies? I'm drinking lots of water, eating some healthy fats like in nuts but still have issues.

I've been pretty lucky so far, but I eat a Kellogs Fiber Plus bar every day! I know if I miss a day! It helps!

Fiber One Bars....they're actually pretty yummy and do the trick. When my parents visited they left some in my cabinet. I didn't realize what they were just that they looked like a granola bar, so I snagged one. I did this for about three days before I made the connection to my bowel issues. Drink lots of water when you eat one and good luck!

 I do stool softeners 3x a day and add miralax in for a 7 day run when needed.

I have taken colace a few times a week. Maybe I should take it more often! Sometimes it helps, others not so much. I'll have to try Miralax. Thanks ladies!
