The Dreaded H-Word...

Hemmorhoids.  Someone PLEASE tell me you can commiserate with me!  I thought 12 weeks would be too early for them to pop up, but noooooo.  And here I was b****ing about heartburn!  ??

Re: The Dreaded H-Word...

  • Poor thing, that sucks.  A co-worker friend has them right now, and he's been giving me the rundown on how to treat them since it's likely I will have to at some point.  I hope you get some relief soon!  He says the sitz bath he bought really helps!

    It does seem early but I guess they can start at any time! So sorry :( hopefully you can find some relief.

  • I too started getting hemmerhoids at 12 weeks. My dr gave me a prescription for suppositories which has helped immensely!!! However, I want long term solutions and me and my husband are going to research it tomorrow. I don't know what's tmi but I think it helps just being more aware of how often you go and what types of foods have more fiber, that's been my trick for some relief. What's worked for you?

    How? I don't have them but it can't hurt to be prepared in case.
  • Got some Tucks pads this morning, so we'll see how that goes.  Stocked up on fiber-y foods too.  Thanks for the ideas!
  • take fiber gummies and drink water like it's your job!
