I would say that some of it depends on how you feel. Do you feel "stopped up", so to speak, like your insides are full of concrete? Are you in pain? If so, I'd consider using a suppository. Otherwise, I'd hold off on it - I always consider those a last resort - and just stick with what you're doing.
Back when I first started the diet, I went from a straight D to a C, temporarily. I'd go 7-10 days without a BM at all. At first it made me panicky, but then I realized that worrying made it worse and unless I was in pain, I'd just go with the flow, so to speak, and let things take their course naturally. I worked my SFS up to 8g/day and increased my insolubles. Eventually, I evened out.
Good luck!
