With my first, I might not have had it. But I have had it with all my others, including this one. It totally started early (like 6/7 weeks). It is super annoying....

It seemed to start immediately! It was one of my first symptoms.

its at its worst at the moment - nearly 17 weeks. It wasn't too bad in the first trimester, but like with my first pregnancy I think the 2nd is the worst.

I don't remeber when it started but it hadn't gone away yet and my son is almost 6m

Very early and it lasted a while. I started taking a stool softener daily & it's helped a lot!

8 weeks, it helped that the only thing I could eat 2 weeks later was watermelon and ketchup.

Before I even got my bfp, it was one of my first clues something was up!

Really early. I was on progesterone so I'm sure that made it worse. Then a few weeks ago I was put on iron, and good lord......I had to stop taking it. I feel super prepared for labor now. (j/k...)

I think mine started pretty early on (end of the 1st or at the beginning of the 2nd trimester).

2nd trimester.
@sarac: agree with the magnesium supplements. I also added flax to my yogurt and tried to drink a ton of water.

30w now, and the whole time. I am super prone to it anyways so it doesn't surprise me. I have to take Miralax every day (1-2 doses a day) and (TMI) have probably had to give myself 4-5 enemas during the course of the pregnancy when it got really out of control (OK'd by my OB and my GI doctor). Better than going to the hospital with a bowel obstruction.
I have not taken any iron, and now it's low but I am afraid to take it due to the constipation issues!
