bowel movements after a c/sec **tmi**

[Gigi]

pain relief can bind you up, i am amazed you haven't seen a doctor earlier - each time you try to go, that must be so painful. i would be worried, the longer you put off the inevitable (seeing the doc), you might be doing yourself internal damage.

it's not a pleasant thing to see a doctor about, but they do see very personal all the time.
i think it's MORE unpleasant to keep suffering like you are, you poor thing.

i really encourage you to get some medical help.

apparently, even eating a high fibre diet, it takes 2-3 days to show up in your bowel movements.

psyllium (in the organic cereal section) is 80% fibre, that's the highest fibre item i can think of.

i hope you get relief soon.

under the circumstances, can you ask your GP to make a once off house call? (i imagine it's hard to get to the doctors with nb twins).

sorry nikki, i obv didn't read your OP quite as carefully as i should have.

ok, then i really think you need a doctor even more urgently, (if painkillers are not being taken, and you are still having this much trouble).

with three under three, are you living on coffee and air, or do you have a Food Fairy, who is keeping you stocked with fresh food and cooking the meals?

it IS hard with 3 under 3, but if the mummy is not well, if you ignore one little health issue, then another, then another - you might end up in hospital - and then what will happen to the 3 under 3? You need to be well, and functioning, in order to "give" to your 3 under 3 (plus your other children).

big hugs to you.
