Re: Pregnant wife 5 weeks without bowel movement!

***Yeah, I did some research myself and would not
risk a colonic at this stage.

Awesome, definitely appreciate the input. I was hoping that she would do it, but when she said that she had a 'gut' feeling about it I decided it best to trust her intuition.

(yes,..corny pun intended...lol)

***I still would also recommend using oil to promote
the flow of bile AND encouraging constant sipping.
Of course, you do not want to drink TOO much water,
but put out a quart a day and make it a goal for
your wife to finish that, and then work up to
another quart.

10-4 I'm not 100% sure what I'm going to do about the oil, I have her taking about 4 grams of concentrated fish oil (nordic naturals) a day, not sure if that's enough. If not I suppose I could supplement it with some Flax soft gels. I have her drinking the large Fiji waters, it's expensive, but she likes it better than the others and makes less of a fuss. Plus it's easier to gauge with the 1 quart bottles.

Thanks again. I'm really digging this community, lots of kind, helpful folk around here. =)
