1) How many grams of SFS are you taking a day? I'd like to get an idea of how much I should be trying to work up to. I'm at 12.5g right now. I won't be much help here, but I stopped taking an SFS when I discovered I did better without. But when I was taking it, I usually had about a Tbsp of Benefiber a day (not sure what the grams would be on this one).

2) If you take miralax, how many grams do you take a day (The little line on the cap of the bottle is 17g and a capfull is about 23g)? Once again, I'd like to see how I measure up. I haven't been using it during my pregnancy, but when I was, I was only filling it up to the line. Once per day was all it took for me, but I've seen others say that they take it twice per day. One note though... it was much more beneficial for me to take it with at least 16oz of cranberry juice/water and then immediately followed by another 16 oz of water. If I didn't get that much liquid intake right away, I didn't go that day.
