Dulcolax belongs to pregnancy category A so there is no absolute contraindication but some experts state that this drug should be avoided during the first trimester, and excessive use is not recommended throughout pregnancy.

Yes , if you are constipated. I would suggest that a bowel softener would be more appropriate. Good Luck
