    My obs got me to take some fibre stuff in water to make sure everything went well in the poo department - hospital supplied it, I just had to ask for it.

    Are you passing wind? I didn't do a poo for quite sometime after DD but as long as I was passing wind, the midwvies were happy.

    Do you think you need to get onto the Benefibre? So much better than metamucil. If you want to encourage things along, try Benefibre. Chemist or Supermarket sell it.

    I know I was worried about it hurting - I had a nice little roid from during the pregnancy - so I got myself onto the benefibre. Helped things massively.

    My system seems to shut up for a few days post natal too.
