Perfectly normal!

I ended up stopping taking my iron tablets as they were making me constipated, and it was painful enough going to the loo following Sprog's birth!

Hello, that was me sorry - I should have explained.

The 'Ask a Mum' section is for pregnant people to ask questions of us Mums. When you've had your baby, please post any questions to do with you or the baby in the 'Baby and Toddler' boards. I hope that makes sense.
