Holy Shit (literally)

TMI, but I just had a BM the size of a cucumber (first one since Simon was born 4 days ago). Oh my god, I feel like I birthed a second baby. I can tell there is more to come too. Please tell me it gets better!

  • It gets better. Definitely take the colace consistently.
  • I have been taking a stool softener daily, I feel like it was utterly useless, lol. I upped to 2 pills today, so hopefully that helps!

  • Take 2 and drink all the water. Seriously, keep a glass or even a pitcher next to you and drink it like it's your job.

  • Yup. What they said. The morning before the first event, i ordered bran muffin, yogurt, fruit for breakfast and dutifully took the colace with my whole bottle(24oz) of water. It wasn't dreadful. Not fun, but not as bad as when I stopped thd colace after discharge and was still on the meds. Holy smokes.... Hearkened to the Zofran days, except worse.

  • Try milk of magnesia. Took it before I went to sleep and the next morning problem solved.
  • Prune juice helped me.
