so just before midnight on 1st august 2350 I gave birth vaginally to my son. I had an episotomy I have weed fine but I can't seem to poo I did sadly poo in labour when pushing ... Why can't I poo now anyone else what can I do sorry tmi ?! X
Have some lactulose to help soften it and get it on its way. It took over a week after having my first for there to be any poo - it will come eventually. xx
I've just come to post a similar question but here we go! Feel much better reading your threads.
I had my baby on the 9th and I've still not been. Been drinking lots and had lots of fruit juice which always helps me. I think I last pood on Thu am (8th) so I guess its not that bad.
I had a lot of stiches and apparently was bleeding from the rectum in labour so guess I'm just scared!
Xx
With me it was because my back passage felt so weird??
The most surprising thing for me about giving birth was how funny it made my bum feel?
I didn't tear or graze or have any stitches.... I also had my MW stick a finger up my bum whilst doing my immediate check-up after I'd delivered... to make sure I didn't have a 3rd or 4th degree tear (I didn't, I needed G&A for the finger up the bum though lol)
After having James I felt like I'd had the worlds biggest poo
Think I went day 3 or 4 and it was so bizarre, took a few numbers 2's before it felt normal again.
