Contact OB: While the most likely diagnosis remains impacted stool from constipation, other diagnoses need to be excluded. Constipation does not seem to be a side effect of Diclegis. Home therapy includes increasing fiber, fluids and exercise as you know. Bulk forming agents (Metamucil) are safe as are stool softeners and mineral oil. Osmotic or stimulant laxatives require medical supervision. See your doctor
