I did it. I finally pooped.

I have been SO constipated during my first trimester you guys. I haven’t had a normal poop since prior to pregnancy. But yesterday was the new year and I did everything in my power to have a normal poop. This morning, it paid off!!! The first normal poop in 11 weeks 😂🙌

I tried a lot of different things yesterday, upped my water intake BIG time, took miralax and liquid magnesia instead of citrucel, stopped medications that have constipation as a side effect, tried to only eat fiber rich foods, and while i was successful in my “efforts” lol, AND I think the increased water helped my lips be less chapped and no blood when I blew my nose finally, i will say eating that much fiber also made me crazy nauseous by second half of day. Could also be because i tried a new anti nausea pill instead of zofran bc of the constipation side effect. Guess you can’t win em all 🤷‍♀️
