Recently found out I am pregnant and after a whole year if taking linclotide and them working really well, I'm no longer aloud to take them and the doctors are yet to find me anything I am aloud.

I'm bloated all the time, severely constipated and tummy cramps, any suggestions???

Hi ,

I’ve just had a look online & there is quite a lot of advice on constipation during pregnancy & what laxatives are safer to take .

Have a look at this website there seems to be a fair bit of advice on there .

Www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov

They shouldn’t have taken the Linaclotide off you & given you nothing else , that’s awful for you

Hi, I had manevac granules throughout both my pregnancies, which worked well for me. I had two healthy baby girls. Good luck 😀
