Uterus still hard & bulging

[stacey_lea86]

So, my uterus seems to still be hard & bulging (says MW) she said it could be because I haven't been for a poo yet & gave me lactulose. But I have not needed a poo. Although is strange for me to go 5 days without one, when used to going daily!

Is this normal?

Also - Post bleeding, only today I have noticed (I am guessing clots) little jelly like clots. MW said if they're is anything bigger than a plum then to call immediately. I Just worry far too much, as my tummy hurts (probably because I need to empty the bowels ) and my pelvis hurts!

Any home remedies I can try to get things back to normal & comfortable?

I had a few clots too, they can be a bit scary sometimes can't they? My tummy hurt for a long time afterwards, after pains are supposed to be worse the more babies you have, this isn't your first is it if I remember rightly! Hopefully things will settle down in a day or two esp once you've been to the loo x
