1st Trimester

For the love of everything that is Holy!!! (tmi)

I haven't sh!t since Friday and currently think i'm dying!

I spent over 45 mins in the bathroom of a store today trying my hardest... and nothing. (nothing except the feeling of pure pain and torture!!)

But the other 2 ladies who came in had NO trouble going... UGH!!

  • Eesh-That stinks(literally) I could never poo in a public place.  I can't even poo when my husband is home or when we have company!  If I HAVE to go I make a excuse to go to my moms (she lives down the road) & I go there. lol but GL with that.

  • If you are on Zofran that stuff will seriously lock you up bad. My OB recommends Miralax.

    I thought bananas constipated you.

    I will do anything!! ty!!

    I had an uncomfortable five days just after my transfer (BAD timing) and this did the trick!  Lots of bran muffins, veggies, and water, and I was good to go again.  And it wasn't anywhere near as bad as I'd expected (thank God, because I was nervous enough about my transfer taking).

    Good luck!

    Caffeine-free soda (if you're avoiding caffeine) may help too. Carbonation always seems to trigger me.

  • Dude, yeah, it's the Zofran.  Gives me a walloping headache and that + pregnancy = no poo for you.

    I swear, my gastrointestinal system shuts OFF at this point of pregnancy. . . I'm on Miralax right now -- and over 100 oz of water a day - and a teensy cup of coffee every morning - caffeinated for regularity.  Colace should be safe.

    If you want to go natural you can do prunes (4-6 per day worked for me) or pineapple juice.  A little lemon water first thing in the morning helps me too.

    Is your uterus tilted?  Mine sits atop my colon, so there's no such thing as 1st tri pooping for me. . . or at least not regularly.  It SUCKS.

     

  • I ate nearly an entire head of brocolli one night and had a great bm the next day. So there's that. Apple juice works sometimes for me too.

    I'm sure you're drinking enough water, but have more. :p

    PS...holy sh!t...triplets? No wonder your backed up. hehe

    Milk of Magnesia worked wonders for me when I had bowel issues in 1st trimester/2nd trimester.

  • ohhhhh man. I'm in big trouble!

     

    Thank you all so much for the suggestions and advise. I am def going to go grocery shopping tomorrow and talk to the Peri on Monday.

    I'm not giving up my zofran though...no way, jose!

  • Oh sister! I had two separate 30min sessions in the bathroom today trying to poo! I have constipation anyways, and the phenergan plus PG is awful!!!

    I did a glycerin suppository and it did make me go, but it was still tough. 

    I don't know what else to do, myself! Colace, fiber, what can a girl do?!? Hope you go soon!!!! :)

  • Same thing happens to me and all I can say is METAMUCIL!!!  Take at least 2 scoops a night and it should work!
  • Can I also add if you are trying to up your fiber, Fiber One pop tarts are AWESOME! I'm sure they're not good for you, but 2 of them have 10g of fiber!

  • Monday morning was he!l for me! I made DH late for work because I was hogging the bathroom. I had to take a break just to shower and then get back at it before work. I finally went but it hurt for the rest of the day.

    I stocked up on Honey Nut Shredded Wheat, apples, oranges and veggies, and I'm drinking tons of water. It's helped a little, but man, I'm pretty sure the idea behind constipation is to prepare you for labor! ouch!!

  • I would get some extra fiber and as much water in you as possible now, and stop pushing... hemarrhoids are no fun, and they somehow happen even when you ARE taking a ton of fiber and being careful never to push (TMI, but trust me, I know). It's just one of those joys of pregnancies. But I would really suggest doing whatever you can to stop straining and try to get ahead of the situation, because otherwise things are going to be very uncomfortable in 2nd/3rd tri.
  • I just had a bunch of cherries and it was like magic...worth a shot, and they were delicious!

     I guess it depends on the person.  Works like a charm for me.

  • I've been constipated with a diarrhea episode every few days. Lovely. What works for me is going somewhere where it's near impossible to poo. Like a comedy show where you'll get harassed if you get up. Or bumper to bumper traffic during rush hour. Can't hurt to give it a shot!

    Hmm... I think it depends on the banana. New, bright yellow ones tend to constipate folks while a nice, sweet, spotty one will send ya to the pooper in no time  ;)

  • Fiber one!  They make tasty cereal and fiber bars.  Those make me go.  You could also try something greasy - you know the kind of food you don't eat because if you do it gives you the runs!

  • I don't seem to have the constipation issue... but my lactose intolerance issues are kicking up like crazy, so I'm always running to the bathroom for that! If you have any kind of lactose intolerance that makes you have the runs, eat what you would normally avoid (in my case, chocolate milk, wendy's frosties and most white cheeses... but not regular milk, for some reason.. go figure!)
  • Zofran really is the devil when it comes to keeping it IN your body, in more ways than one.

    I second the single cup of caffeinated coffee to move things along.
