Congratulations on your delivery!!!! For constipation - loads of water, raisins, banana other high fiber foods. But if it persists pls do contact your Dr.

I had this problem too and the only thing that helped was Phyllium. It&rsquo;s an insoluble fibre. Have a quarter spoon of it mixed in water in the morning, afternoon and night after meals. Progress is gradual but definite. Ensure you have it as soon as it&rsquo;s mixed in water. And do not overdo the quantity. Rest as others said, lots of water, fruits and grains. Veggies don&rsquo;t help much in this regard as they have soluble Fibres

This happens as we are less active, try moving around the house whenever possible . And drink plenty of water.
