Hemorrhoids anyone??

I know, tmi but since giving birth (7weeks now) I have minor constipation and the last two weeks it has been a challenge and very painful. Anyone else going or went through this?

    I had them for about a month. Doctor gave me medicine and they went away eventually. They are a pain but there's not much that can be done other than waiting them out.

    I had constipation too and found that eating food that made me go helped :/ But then I also got so bad I needed medicine for that too so I took it and it helped.

    Definitely a headache when you've gotta deal with that, recovering, and a new LO.

    I'm 7.5 weeks out. Still have them if I have a rough time in the bathroom. I'm still taking stool softener so that's helping. Also trying to up my fiber and water.

    Oh so glad I'm not the only one. I hate these things! I just want to go to the bathroom normally. I fine when I eat certain foods its easier, but sometimes when I go its just uncomfortable. I was taking colace but I hate taking meds. I might have to start again. I also use the Pep H wipes they're nice. Im just worried I'll have to see the doc for them. I'm a scardy cat about it honestly. I dont want them messing back there.

    Oh aren't they the worst! I had hemeroids for the first time during pregnancy and after labour I had the worst external ones - they were huge and ended up going to the docs to get some cream as over the counter cream and suppositories didn't work. He prescribed me execma cream and they cleared up within 1 week. All has been well until 7weeks post labour were Im struggling to go to the toilet and when I do internal hemeroids are coming back to life. I have found drinking coffee in the morning and walking during the day is really helping-also the over the counter supositries are a must. I hope this helps?

    Exercise is great for regularity. Very difficult when recovering from csection for weeks. Warm beverages in the morning can trigger movements for some ppl.
