Given you are in your 2ww only stuff suitable in pregnancy so Fibogel drinks and lactulose only I’m afraid.......sucks I know! Hope it gets better soon x

How much water have you been drinking each day? You should be drinking 2ltrs. If you can up your water intake and perhaps have some fibre that might help xx

[Hidden in reply to Hidden]

Not enough! Defo need to sort myself out sharpish. Gonna drink lots of water just now xx

[Hidden in reply to Hidden]

Just try to spread it through the day too. There is such a thing as too much water. Also, if you drink it all at once it just goes straight through you xx

Try prune juice it’s natural and that helped me xx

[lolita83]

A smoothie Of prunes, Apple juice and plain natural yoghurt. Works well for me, good luck x

[Hidden]

Try eating an apple. Always works for me. Right kind of fibre I think. x

[Hidden in reply to _MrsC]

Oh i havent bit into an apple in years lol. I would have to slice it up as ive got a loose bottom front tooth thats about to drop out 😂🙄!!! My dentist is ready and waiting to fit me a new one hahaha x

Psyllium husks are natural (and what’s used in fybogel). You can mix them with juice so you don’t have the nasty sweetners in Fybogel. I always like prunes, too! I had hideous constipation after my first round of ivf, so empathise. Maybe TMI, but are you passing wind? If not chewing gum and drinking peppermint tea can also help. Good luck xxx

Yes i have been gassy too which relieves it a bit lol. I will definately be looking into options today though as cant do another day like this! X

Activist yogurts and chocolate, I feel your pain, I was extremely bad on my 1st cycle. Xx

Oh no you must be so uncomfortable 😣 I’d keep drinking lots of water and eat some prunes. I love them with natural yoghurt for a snack 😋 Hoping you get some relief xx
