A celebration and a question about magnesium

This morning I almost cried when I had my first well-formed and complete stool in the three weeks following the antibiotic treatment.

I believe it had something to do with taking Natural Calm, a magnesium citrate supplement, before bed the last few nights. The dosage I've taken is about 800mg. It has also dramatically improved my sleep, which has been really poor lately.

Of course I'm very happy about this. At the same time, my goal is to get back to regularity without using laxatives that are habit-forming. Is the dosage of magnesium that I'm taking considered to be a laxative by Heather? Will it damage my intestine's natural motility (what's left of it :>)?
