Yep. Take a stool softener like Colace. It's safe and helps.

being constipated is normal weither it is the vitamins or not and its all because when your uterus gets bigger it squshes all the rest of your insides like your intestines and sometimes blocks it from coming out...so it may not just be your prenantal vitamins at all!

it's probably not you vitamins, it's most likely because, being pregnant, your body uses up all of the nuitrients it can to supply to you and your growing baby. And the less amount of moisture in your...well...you know! Makes it more likely for you to get constipated. It's not that your uterus is getting bigger, that has absolutely nothing to do with it, your uterus doesn't even grow that way!
