Re: prenatal vitamins and constipation

Crashing...not a TTCer but I work in nutrition for a vitamin company...

It's probably the iron in the prenatal (if there is iron it) bc iron is known to constipate and bind your digestive tract. Try looking for iron as iron bisglycinate in the prenatal Chat Icon

They make pre natals with stool softeners in them now. I'm actually going to switch to those when this month is up.

I've never had this problem but I was going to suggest the same thing.

Re: prenatal vitamins and constipation

OH YES! Its horrible. I take a daily stool softner (docusate sodium) with my prenatal. It does help
