What does it mean of short and long time use of dulcolax? once a week i am taking it to relieve my constipation. i am 26 weeks pregnant now..

Once a week: is quite reasonable. Making sure you have enough water intake and fiber intake and physical activity can help to make sure your bowels move regularly. It is not unusual for pregnant women to have some trouble with constipation.
