I started eating yogurt daily. I had to play around with brands until I found the one that worked best for me. Additionally, when I get "backed up" eating canned pears has been the best for me. I swear by them and I know others on here have mentioned having success with the canned pears. Plus, it's "natural" and has vitamins and nutrients we need anyhow. I also found that the canned pears worked the fastest, faster than any of the stool softeners I have used and prunes or prune juice.

This is an issue for many of us MSers and I know others will be along with suggestions and things that have worked for them.
