  Dulcolax helped me, you can find it in the pharmacy. That and lots of fiber even with both of those it still took me about three weeks to normalize. Make sure you drink lots of water too. If it still doesn't get better ask your doctor.

  Colace is safe if you are breastfeeding. Hospital gave it to me after birth of DS.

  I eat a fiber one bar daily as well as a high fiber diet and it seems to help. It still took about 3 weeks to normalize though but it wasn't as painful.

  Bolthouse Farms makes a couple of breakfast smoothies that are high in fiber. They helped me get through my pregnancy.

  Make sure you get relief before you start eating a bunch of fiber....fiber doesn't help get rid of what's already there. Lots of water, try putting your feet up on a stool while you are trying go (my husband called it the stool stool, haha). I had to use a couple suppositories in the beginning to get things going. Good luck, it's awful!

  Evaluate your diet. Are you eating enough fruits, veggies and fiber?

  Glycerine suppositories - they work within 20 mins. We're a godsend with post-csection Poo!
