HI dear patient! Thank you for sharing your concerns with us on HCM!

Constipation is a very common complain of all pregnant women. In some cases hemorroids are developed. You are doing good with your diet which prevent constipation. You should continue with the vegetables and fruits, foods that contain a lot of fibers.

If you don't get relief at all from your diet you may try lactulose, it is a drug that helps with the constipation and can be used during pregnancy. But this is the option when the others have failed.

Take care and i hope my answer was helpful.
Best regards!
Dr Eriol.
