Too long: Hi, That's a long time to go without a bowel movement. Any fever? Vomiting? I recommend a single X-ray of your abdomen to make sure that stool is getting all the way through (that there is not an obstruction). If no obstruction, then it should be safe to use a combination of stool softener (like Colace) and bowel stimulant (like Dulcolax laxative).
