worse than labor!! TMI

Going #2 afterwards!!  I had the most painful experience of my life earlier this week in the bathroom trying to go.  No one ever told me it could be this bad.  

I had a c-section but pushed for 2 1/2 hours prior and didn't have hemorrhoids... well after this bathroom experience I definitely have a couple.  OUCH!!

Fair waning for my Feb mamas getting back on "schedule" is a lot harder than I thought. Liam is 2 weeks old today and I've only gone 4 times.

  • Words of advice from someone who has chronic IBS. Milk of magnesia (can be found at a local drug store), papayas, ginger tea, and lots of H2o will help. I've found that using any one of those methods tends to keep the blow out/bloody poo to a minimum and it helps soften hard poo.

  • I was downing colace like it was candy. Okay not that much, but every time I took a pain pill I took a colace. Made going so much easier and was "back on track" right away.

  • Fruit, lots of water & colace all got me back on track within a day.

  • Thanks for the info...I've heard it could be bad...hopefully all the fiber-rich stuff I eat, water, and apparently a healthy dose of Colace will help when it comes time for me!
  • I haven't had my baby yet, but after my first I got really bad hemorrhoids (I didn't have them while pregnant) and bm were terrible for weeks after.  The first few bm after his birth were actually not that bad, but then they got progressively worse before they got better.  I am dreading this!
