I have a prenatal apptmt. early tommorow morning, what should I eat today to relieve constipation by then?
Answer:
I had really bad constipation with my second pregnancy. The only thing that provided me relief was taking Colace daily and drinking a couple of glasses prune juice each day. Stay away from spicy foods, fried foods and red meats and eat lots of veggies and foods high in fiber.
A salad for dinner is good however a salad made at home is best. Fast food is not your friend right now. Also drink lots of water because that aids in keeping things moving along.
I started taking stool softeners which really help.
Raisins or an Apple
prunes and prune juice, apples and apple juice, Chinese food always makes me go. lol good luck ♥
I'll send my wife over to cook for you..that always works for me!!
Drink tons of water, as that's the only thing that relieves my constipation. I've found that eating tons of cereal helps a lot too.
Fried Okra always does the trick for me.
salad is good,also eat some fruit in juice and drink lots of juices
Do nothing, go to your obgyn and tell them your constipated. you have to be careful what you take when your preg. If you take a laxative, that will effect your baby too, so check with you dr. try a natural remidy like juices. lettuce is harsh on youur stomache, not easily digestible, opt for cabbage.
Prune juice, Apple juice, Special K cereal, grapes and there is a yogurt calles "Activa" that helps get you regular and keep you regular. It tastes good too! All of these helped me, I had serious constipation due to my prenatal pills.
I dont know if everyone experiences this, but during my pregnancy, It seemed that I was constipated no matter what I ate. Fruits and fruit juices were about all I could eat/drink to prevent it. Just try to stay away from oily/fried foods and fiber-rich foods. (fiber helps keep you regular, but if you are already prone to constipation, at least in my experience, it can add to the problem.)
prunes.
and to much fiber can be constipating
Try oatmeal, it works for me
You can eat broccoli, bananas, something with beans in it, especially kidney's or red beans. Fruit and green veggies make you go potty if you eat the right ones.
Hopoe this helps :-)
What about plain old PRUNES!! Talk about relief!! I'm surprised your doctors haven't told you to eat them. THEY work!! You might even try the juice if you can stand the taste.
you should try prune juice or yes apple juice should work but, you'll have a better chance with prune juice all you need is a one six once cup
Eat lots of granola cereal. I had bad constipation problem before I got pregnant and people tolled me it would just get worse. So now I make my own granola and eat a bowl of it every morning and I am good to go (literally) .
