Constipation is common during pregnancy. Make sure u drink at least 2L of water daily. Consume more fruits & vegetables. Prunes (less sweet) & prune juice with high fibre helps. Can also try to take probiotics. If the constipation is serious with hard stools, u may try to take some over-the-counter mild laxatives such as Duphalac to temporarily relieve the constipation but do not heavily rely on it.

I drink fresh milk + yoghurt or Yakult/vitagen to get things moving. Lots of water and fiber as well
