Do you like tea? I drink smooth moves tea when I'm having problems and it does the job.

I use half of a Colace - If I use a whole laxative of any kind it causes me to have horrible cramping.

I didn't like Miralax either. It always made my stomach feel bad and it's not supposed to. It' supposed to be one of the more gentle laxatives on the market.

Try Colace. It's just a softener not a laxative so it shouldn't make you uncomfortable. I have found Sennakot to be very effective to. Just a warning though, one time I took closer to the max does of Sennakot and while it worked it wasn't pleasant. Start at the lowest dose would be my suggestion.

Also drink tons of water. It will help these medications work more efficiently.

I'm a little jealous of those of yall that only need a colace to get going. I take one every day for maintenance, have been for years.

Milk of magnesia. If that doesn't work then FLEET enema.
