Hi. Pain after eating something can be due to gastritis, which is very common in pregnancy.
Also there is delayed gastric emptying in pregnancy due to hormonal changes,and reason for constipation.
Now solution is take small and frequent meals, instead of a heavier one. No spices or fatty meal.Drink lot of water. Increase fibre in your diet which will cure contipation also.If really very upset with constipation she can use lactulose syrup with the consent of her treating dr.
Thanks.
