TMI: Yuck, starting to get backed up :(

I'm sure these two are related but the week I started feeling stronger kicks (seriously, this kid is STRONG!), I start to get backed up. He apparently had a growth spurt and is putting extra pressure on my colon or something. It must be. I do drink water like a fish but I admit that I'm not so strict when it comes to fiber. I guess I need to start eating Fiber one.Tongue Tied The thought of getting hemorroids terrifies me!

    I had that problem almost my entire pregnancy.  No matter how much water, fiber, prunes, whatever I downed...nothing helped.  Except Colace.  Colace was my bff.

    It's a stool softener that's safe to take while pg.

    I agree - Colace was good to me as well.  Actually, I didn't even know that I had a small hemorrhoid until I had my first internal exam and the doctor mentioned it.  That's when I bought the Colace...as well as some Tucks pads.   

    I had to take it through at least the first 3 weeks after baby was born too. I didn't want to put any extra straining into that area after delivery.  

    It's a stool softener.

    I agree with TxJen. Nothing worked for me but colace but even that stopped at a point. I was taking it every day and after over a week of not going I was in so much pain my OB sent me to the ER for an enema (She had given me permission to do home ones but they didn't work) That sucker worked!! It's awful and I know how you feel. The fiber one bars are pretty good for once you do get regular. You know to keep you regular :) GL!
