Thanks Dee- I will start doing the Inner Health Plus again- did it for my last pregnancy. It is funny that you seem to have the same thing, vaginal bleed after straining. I dont know whats going on there, but things have seemed to have settled down. I have been drinking copius amounts of water and together with yucky prune juice and my new stools I have had some good ones lately! I hate the fact that if I have metamucil or too much prune juice or dried fruit, then I get very windy and pain in my tummy.

Thanks for all your words
