How long till you... Did a number 2... ???

[Early Kids]

Congratulations on your VBAC

I went the same day my boys were born, I had to ask for the catheter to be removed because I couldn't go with it in But they were both VB's with DS1 I had some grazing and I had nothing with DS2, fairly easy births (pity I can't say that about the labours )

Hmmm, It was the same day (about 6 hours later I think )
not the most pleasant experience

Thanks everyone! Good to know I'm not the only one who took forever... I went this morning finally So day 5 for me! I had 1 coloxyl tab lastnight before bed. Luckily I didn't need stitches & I'm only a bit grazed, & it wasn't hard from all the fruit I have been eating and taking lots of fluids! Just takes a while to get things working again I guess

I was in hosp (hosp and mbu = hosp) for 6 weeks post birth and I didn't go for at least 3 or 4 of those...and that was with twice daily sorbitol and coloxyl (sp)...I'd had an episiotomy though and a PPH so was also being pumped full of iron tablets, which makes it worse. Was too scared to poo becuase of the stitches!

During 1st pregnancy, my record was 4.5 weeks...this pregnancy, 4 weeks.

It feels much worse after birth though...use lots of nice, soft, wet babywipes for afterwards!
