piles!!! :( tmi!

[Constantstar]

Hey all,

Well when I got my bfp one of the things I noticed were all the vains appearing on my thighs and groin area and did have a sore butt! Then got my bfp! Well I'm 7 weeks tommo and I def have piles! I'm in utter agony going to the loo! There is some blood and I'm very very painful! I've also noticed my legs and thighs aching and wonder if its all to do with my blood pressure changing etc!

I've found a few ideas on the net I'm trying:
Sitz baths
Fruit juice with blueberry , blaxkberry andd cherry

I don't wanna take over the counter cream cause most say don't use when preg!! I'll ask at my booking in appoint next thurs but anyone else got or had this!!?? Its driving me bonkers and have u got any natural remedies?? Xxx

Hi hun, ive never had this myself but i have seen others on here saying to use sudo creme to relieve some of the pain, other than that i think you should call your gp or midwife as they should be able to prescribe something suitable with being pregnant as it is a common problem. Hope it clears up soon x

im pretty sure you an still use the normal creams? it says that in my pregnancy book anyway. Ive had piles before and i know how agonising it is - i feel for you hun!! Try drinking loads and loads of water and eating lots of fiber x

U can buy "Nelsons H+ care" cream from holland and barrat and they do the wipes aswell, these r safe in pegnancy and what my midwife told me to use when i was pregnant with my son. worked well 4 me. x

Ive found the best thing throughout my pregnancy has been sudocrem on there soothes and shrinks i actually switched from germaloids to sudocrem as u only need a small amount.
