Is constipation normal? Im struggling ;(

Hello moms! I am currently in my 15th week & just started feeling very bloated & constipated. Is this normal? Because so far i have no issues with passing motion etc :’) #firsttimemom

yes it’s normal!! my gynae suggested taking more smaller meals a day, drinking loads of fluid and take probiotics to help with the bloating and constipation.

some people experience bloating and constipation throughout their pregnancy. at the start, could be due to hormones. subsequently could be due to hormones plus baby size squeezing your intestines etc, making it harder to poop well. if needed, can take Duphalac (can get from guardian/watsons) to soften the stool. don’t strain and force the poop out cos it’s not good for the bb! (: jiayou!!
