    I’m 28 weeks and had to be hospitalized for constipation. At first they didn’t believe me when I told them how badly in pain I was, they assumed it was round ligament pain and thought since it’s my first pregnancy, I couldn’t handle the pain. I went back home and the sharpest pain on my left lower side stretched around to my back, I was shaking and threw up because of how severe the pain was. Once I spent 8 more hours in the hospital suffering, they concluded that it was severe constipation. They gave me an enema and it made me feel much better instantly

    Goodness I am pregnant for 4 months already and I've been feeling this too. I've eaten all the food which can help you digest food easily.. but It is really difficult. I keep coming to the comfort room and try to release my stool but I am frustrated it won't come out. It was 5 days before i release and it was hard as rock 😫 and now literally I was eating fruits and vegetables and a lot of water but i tried going to the CR many times dude and I feel frustrated again. It's been 3 days and my tummy feels uncomfortable like it will explode at any moment it wants. 😣😫 I don't want to take iron vitamins since it's one of the reason having a hard stool but my OB said i need it.😟

Once MRI report come, they will advise next course of action. Luckily in the past 2 days i was able to pass little stool and rectum pain has reduced little bit.
