No. But depending on how long the constipation lasts, it could be quite uncomfortable for you. Constipation is common in pregnancy.Drink plenty of water, eats fruits and vegetables to help things progress. Try eating some activia or other live culture yogurt .

properly, being pregnant does being that undesirable cycle of constipation. you're probable (or could be) taking a prenatal diet which has iron it in.. Iron is quite constipating, so which you're able to drink somewhat some water and walking help help the motility of your bowels. yet another ingredient that happens as you get better alongside on your being pregnant (with the stress of the toddler on your bowels) is hemorrhoids...you do no longer choose to alter into constipated in case you have those...OUCH!!!! you're able to speak on your physician approximately this if it rather is going to become a much bigger difficulty and s/he can order you some colace, that's a stool softener this is totally risk-free to take mutually as pregnant. The prenatal supplementations haven't any stool softener bring about them. each woman has a various bowel habitual yet as long as you need to bypass your stool without difficulty or discomfort, then purely shop on....the different issues, take better water and communicate on your physician. wish that helps.

No i dont think so.Its common to get constipated during pregnancy. Eventually it will come out. In the meantime drink lots of water and try to keep a somewhat healthy diet it may help. Also this may sound strange but a cup or 2 of coffee makes a great laxative.

if you have a true bowel obstruction it can lead to infection and even death, so yes, if you never BM while pregnant its bad.
If you hold it in for a few hrs, no, its of no harm.

No, but it's not going to feel pleasant for you.
