Suppositories (WARNING:TMI)

in 1st Trimester

Okay ladies, I don't know who else to turn to for this, so I am hoping that someone can help me. My Dr. gave me suppositories to take for constipation & nausea. Now my problem, everytime I insert one it feels like I have to poop, BAD. But I wait usually about 30 minutes then I have to go to the bathroom... But no poop?? It's getting very uncomfortable. Someone please tell me you have maybe had this problem?? And suggestions??

    I think it's normal for you to feel like you have to go after you've inserted one.  I mean, you're using almost the same muscles that you would be to hold in poop to hold in the suppository.  (TMI - sorry) However, if you're inserting them and still not going, I think you should tell your doctor.  I think they should probably be making you go if they're for constipation.

    I agree with PP. If the suppositories aren't even working you may want to let your Dr. know. It's probably not urgent (unless you're in a ton of pain) so you could wait until office hours. In the meantime, I'd try chugging water, drinking apple juice, and eating some activia!  Wink

    1. are you putting them up high enough? If not high enough in your anal cavity they serve no purpose. put on a glove, and some lube and get that bad boy up there. Or try miralax. At the hospital we reccomend this to every preggo.
