laxative for nursing mom

[trus]

hello!
What could I take for regular bowel movements while nursing?
Also, if I do go to the bathroom, I feel like eliminations are not complete.

Dried apricots, perhaps 1-2 with each meal. They helped me a lot after dd was born, but be careful not to eat too many if they have sulfur dioxide as a preservative. I learned that the hard way.

A magnesium supplement usually works wonders. Natural Calm is a nice one.
