"Be sure to talk with your medical provider about what is going on. They may want to check to be sure your thyroid gland is working normal. Pregnancy induced hypothyroidism is not uncommon but can make pregnancy constipation even more of an issue. Your medical provider will be the best to help you manage this issue if none of these routine options help." -- TANYA_BABYFIT - 12/29/2008 1:25:35 PM
