Oh no, you poor love. Shall we have a competition? I really think i'm up for a medal
I've never really suffered from them, only once or twice before.

I got one (just the one!) quite a few weeks ago because I was so constipated & after a 2 or 3 days of applying cream it went but about a week ago it decided to come back for a party and brought a few friends too.
On Friday night I had an upset tum so spent quite a bit of time on the loo (sorry) and one of the little blighters decided to triple in size and i'm having a real job sitting down now and it hurts ALOT! I'm putting on cream but hasn't had the desired affect yet.
I'm seeing my midwife on Thurs so will ask her for some prescribed stuff if they haven't gone home by then!

I'm dreading going into labour if I still have them by then, how embarrassing would that be?

How have your movements been? if you're getting constipated thats prob why you've got them, try some cream, apparently putting an ice pack on helps reduce swelling (haven't tried this myself tho!) and if they persist a trip to the docs and good luck in the latter stages when the babes pushing down on them (ouch)

Hope they get better soon, I do sympathise with you.

Yeah, its sooooooooo not pleasent. The only thing you can do I guess is make sure you have plenty of fibre & drink loads of water & keep your fingers crossed! (I'm getting tempted to snip mine off - might hurt less!!!!)

Mine kept me awake quite alot of last night, along with my SPD so its a trauma turning over in bed, needing to get up 3 times to pee, my ear kept going numb and my DH snoring I am feeling fab. today!!

I sympathise with you both i didn't have any through pregnancy but after the birth was a different story all i can say is ouch, they were huge and they lasted for about 6 weeks and oh so painful and cos i'd been cut i couldn't use cream cos of stitches, things us women go through hey!
