Anyone getting really bad constipation / big poops in third trimester?

This is gonna be SUPER GROSS, sorry in advance. I’ve been pooping every 3-5 days recently (usually it’s every 2nd day) and the poops are huge 😭😭😭 it’s been such a struggle for me. Ive never had to spend more than 5 min pooping before but recently, I easily spend at least 20min. I’ve tried eating more fibre and drinking more, eating more fruits. I don’t think it has helped so far. I’ve been advised to take Moringa and/or magnesium supplements. Has anyone experienced this before and what helped?

Yes, I did. I tried all things like you but still hard to pass motion. So, I took duphalac syrup as doctor suggestion and it worked for me. Perhaps you wanna try it. Hope it also work for you, dear ❤️
