Dear Lybrate User, Its a common phenomena to get constipated in pregnancy. Eat a fiber rich food. Avoid oily and junk foods, avoid spicy food ,drink plenty of water and juices, eat curd, eat in smaller proportions. For headache you can have tea and coffee in minimum. Twice daily is recommended. Avoid chocolates and carbonated drink, do not overthink, do rest. Heaviness is due to growing uterus. Still I suggest you to meet your gynaecologist once.
