How can one prune....

destroy my life!!!

hahaha! TMI alert, but aren't most side effects of pregnancy??

So I was constipated, I decided to eat some prunes, after the first bite, "some" turned into one...the texture was not appealing.

The next day my stomach was rumbling and making all kinds of noises followed by painful intestional cramping. That night I didnt sleep NOT.ONE.MINUTE. You know there are only so many animals I can make out of the shadows on the walls. I peed about 4 times that night, no pooping or urge to poop.

I guess the prune was just working its magic and keeping me awake while doing so, because the next morning. HOLY CR@P....literally. Followed by another Holy dump at lunch. I cannot believe that much caca was in my body, I must have lost 10 pounds.

Needless to say....EFF YOU PRUNES! You are not my friend!! I'd rather sleep!

Because of my morbid curiosity I have to go home and try this now!

Why did I keep reading despite the TMI warning??

Word.

ETA: OP, try raisins maybe they're not as ummm...potent?

BAHAHAHA! Why not! At least this time, if I'm unable to sleep, I'll do some paperwork for work so I won't feel bad taking a midday nap

HAHAHA!

When I was having my own problems with severe cramping I went to the grocery store and bought prune nectar and downed two glasses. Thankfully it was a sunday and first thing in the morning because I couldn't leave the house (or should I say bathroom) all day.

I completely know how you feel.

I actually did the exact same thing you did- one turned into many. However I wans't up all night.. but my tummy did do funky cramps and noises. I love prunes so I was thrilled when I could eat them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
