I as well am having trouble with constipation (10 weeks pregnant). I now take psyillium fibre twice a day, make sure I drink lot's of fluid and eat lots of fruit, try to cut down on bread intake as it acts like glue in the bowels and I have also cut down on my iron supplements and try to get more iron naturally. So far I seem to be going about once every day, although I feel like I could still go more. I also take a suppository every once in a while because I read that they are okay to take while pregnant. I have read that too many laxatives can be bad because they flush out all the nutrirents you've work so hard to feed your baby...
