  • me too, can u miscary because of the pushing?
  • I'm not sure, no one else will answer my question :( how far along are you
  • Me too. I have been this way the entire pregnancy and I am now 13weeks. I have a retroflexed uterusi looked up a diagram of it and I can see why I would be considering my intestines does not fall towards my rectum which would make it hard for gravity to take its course. I hate it. But try dolculax. Idk if yoursupposedto takeduring prefnancy but it is the onlything that works for me.
  • Try not to strain too bad you will get piles. Not verycomfortable or pretty.
  • I'd worried About miscarrying from that. Try eating whole grain or cauliflower (its a natural laxative its helped me the past 2 days)
  • My question for everyone is if you strain will it hurt the baby? :(
  • I wouldn't think so...you'd think they would prescribe for the constipation I'd that were the case.
  • Yea that's true!
  • I wouldnt worry to much, bc that is bad to do.but just up your fiber and drink plenty of fiber. You can take benefiber and stuff like that, mix it in food or drinks, it doesn't taste, but if you try it start slow, I got real constipated before I was pregnant and tried it. But good luck :) lol
  • Thanks girl you've deff put my mind at ease. And it means a lot :)
  • Pushing won't hurt the baby but can cause cramps and also hemeroids so don't do it too much. Tell ur Dr too cuz too much stool buildup can get toxic. They can recommend otc things or prescriptions to ease it. I try not to push too hard and drinks lots of water.
  • No push away! I have the same problem and the only thing it leads to is hemroids(tmi which I now have :-S ) and my doctor says that's completely normal for pregnant women
  • Kingsmama@ so the cramping for like 2 seconds after is okay? And yeah the hemroid thing is a normal thing here cause I've grunted forever so hahah tmi I know but jw.
  • I heard preparation h makes wipes for after you poo to help prevent hemroids. I need to look into it, my butt has been getting irritated.
  • Ya I get it for like 5-10 secs during each push and sometimes after it hits the toilet lol. It's normal tho I think for me its my uterus filling the space back up where the poo just was and gets a lil crampy. And nothing is tmi here its all normal and we r all going thru similar things. And yes about 50% of women get hemroids anyways but straining a lot can make lol blood vessels swell and POP too. So if u wipe back there and there's a lil blood that's normal.
  • One morning after a tough poo I did find blood and it made my heart stop! Took me a minute to talk myself down and convince myself it was just from my butt.
  • I SO FEEL UR PAIN....I'M IN THE CONSTIPATION STAGE AND IT IS A DEAF
  • Ahh I feel so much better now that everyone said its okay, because right after I pooped I laid down and curled my legs up and I felt like it hurt to curl my legs but the pains gone completely now! Anyone else?
  • Ya I feel much better after I go. Mines so bad I get sick from having too much in there. When everything settles tho I feel a million times better.
  • Me tooo like 100 times betterr
