I've been there. First kid, constipated for days and scared to take a dump for what felt like months after. Second kid, I had a game plan and was pooping in no time.
Congrats on your successful shit!
Yep. Front loaded the H2O, said no to any pain meds harder than Motrin, tons on colace.... Now I can celebrate with a Percocet! Lol jk but srsly.
Awesome! This was the most traumatic part of the whole birth/recovery process for me.
C-Section with baby #1 was an emergency, and I was so constipated after (10+ days) that I would sit on the toilet and cry I was so uncomfortable. I was more scared about being constipated after this one than I was about the actual procedure and getting a baby at the end... It's the small victories, people.
