What to do if i am 21 weeks pregnant and i have a sharp digging pain in my back and i carnt poop?

Constipation: if you are constipated, you may need some stool softeners to aid with a bowel movement. If you have contractions, pelvic pressure, see your Ob to make sure your cervix is of normal size and there are no sonographic signs of preterm labor. Goodluck
