I've increased my acacia to a huge heaping spoon(I measured it this weeked with a measuring spoon and its about 3-3.5) twice a day and have cut back my miralax to less than half a dose a day. My goal is to stop the miralax totally because I'm thinking about getting pregnant this spring and want to cut out as many prescription drugs as possible. I read the package of you acacia and it said to consult my physician before taking when pregnant-if it just 100% soluble fiber what problems can there be with pregnancy??

Also, what is the maxium dose of acacia I can take a day?? I'm really excited at the thought of stopping the miralax. So far so good-I actually had a normal, formed stool without any pain this morning!

Taking it one day at a time.....
