    I had the same problem in my first trimester and it was extremely painful and uncomfortable. I got some "All Bran Vanilla Clusters" (not 100% sure about the name) and it worked great. There's something like 10 grams of fiber per serving. The flakes taste very bland, so I definately recommend the vanilla cluster because then you have a little flavor and sweetness.

    Don't take laxatives though, that could hurt the baby. I think you might could take Kaeopectate (sp?) but I'd check with your doc. Or go onto Google and search for "nurse hotline" in your area - they are a wealth of knowledge!
