_Kate_ 2,224 Posted November 10, 2016 Are you drinking lots of Water? Are you doing enough walking? I tried numerous stuff which didn't do a thing but then I tried Dulcolax and it really worked for me. Hope you feel better soon ! Kate Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheCurvyJones 721 Posted November 10, 2016 I take peri colace. it is a stool softener with a stimulant. But make sure you're getting in plenty of Water and Fiber. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
QueenOfTheTamazons 634 Posted November 10, 2016 Ive been constipated since week 3. I started added benefiber to my shakes as of yesterday, and started drinking Smooth Move tea. Hopefully the combo will help. Ducolax works TOO good for me and I hate the taste/texture of milk of magnesa so I am holding off on that as long as possible. HW 385 SW 359 CW 335 (50lbs down!)
