my advice on constipation.... don't do it!!!!
start being vigilent NOW about what you eat and maybe even mix a little metamucile (sp?) into a meal once a day because I got hemorrhoids during my first pregnancy due to constipation around month 7 and it was the WORST experience of my life! seriously! This time around I'm going to make sure to eat good amounts of fiber daily and even take a supplement every other day to make sure things keep moving. I'm about 4weeks along, and I'm already having crazy cravings. I'm doing my best not to give into them though, just like I'd fight off a normal craving, i busy myself and typically a few min later I've forgotten about it. It's gonna be a long 9mo though if I"m already jonz'n for junk;)
