Hi,
I understand your concern.
- In pregnancy both intestinal movements & digestive process are slowed down due to pregnancy hormone.Due to them the stools are retained in rectum for a longer time, get dried giving rise to constipation.It The white discharge is due to stress of defecation.
It can be managed by few lifestyle changes/ help of few medicines.
- Get stools examined to exclude intestinal infection/inflammation.
- Having multiple small servings of food- rather than loading digestive system with large meals
- Eating high fiber diet along with plenty of water ( 12 glasses )in 24 hours.
- regular walking/ abdominal exercises
- Get help from digestive enzymes, stool softeners like Ispaghuls, Purgatives are better avoided as they are habit forming.

a
Thanks.
