yes it is a stool softner my daughters both used it it really works wonders this is what I found read on:
If you really find yourself struggling with constipation, you must consult your doctor before taking any kind of laxative. The makers of Dulcolax say that the product has been used for a long period of time and in that time, “there has been no evidence of undesirable or damaging effects during pregnancy”.
Dulcolax is a stimulant laxative. It encourages peristalsis, which is the contraction of the colon to pass waste products out of the body.
eating these will also help you stay normal
Eat plenty of fiber-rich foods; that means lots of fruit (fresh or dried) and vegetables, plus whole grain breads and cereals I hope this helped

According to my "Week by Week Pregnancy Guide" it is safe and I took it during my pregnancy with no ill effects.
