Constipation is very common during pregnancy. Keep yourself well hydrated and have fibrous diet that should help. You can take laxative syrups after consultation.
Straining shouldnt cause any complication with pregnancy but if you have symptoms like bleeding , pain in lower abdomen then kindly consult.
