Hey girls had my ba on Monday, haven’t been able to go to the toilet since (haven’t pooed since Sunday) eaten theist fruits, even tried lactalouse! Nothing ! Anyone had this? Currently looking 8months pregnant (loving boobs)
Advice please xx
Prune juice, dried apricots, flaxseed. Normally resolves when stop taking medication. Lots of water.
I dunno if this will work, but when I cant go as I always have bad spells of not being able to, I have a really hot curry and you can gurantee by morning im back on form 😀 worth a try if you can stand a hot curry xxx
Bless you hun….I bet it’s the painkillers. Yes you need to be drink 2-3 litres of water a day and have a tonne of veg with your evening meal. I have had no problems because of doing this and im convinced that’s why and im religiously taking my meds every 4 hours. Xx
I do eat a lot of veg tbh I just haven’t recently! I haven’t been taking pain killers often just at night before bed as I’m not in any pain! Just don’t want it to suddenly to creep up on me! Thanks girls xx
I’m having exactly the same problem had mine on Monday and not been able to go to the toilet. I thought I might be the antibiotics because I’ve not been having pain killers either xx
its going to sound really gross, but I tried everything and the only thing that helped was putting these like things up my bum LOL and it literally shoots back out along with poop im so sorry for putting such a gross thing but I know how you feel and that’s what worked for me, they look like gold bullets not sure of the name will have to ask my nan! xx
Suppository? I remember my mum havin to use these when she had a op? if nothing works ill give it a try, thanks rinx x
I have had something that you put in bum when I had an op a few years ago so that I could go to the toilet, worth a try if you can get hold of them xxx
My friend is a GP and he said that co codomol is a well known for constipation. Laxatives might be the only way to relieve it if you continue taking them. I didn’t have co codomol, my surgeon prescribed only ibuprofen and paracetamol which was fine for my pain and I didn’t get the dreaded bloat xx
Still haven’t gone now in 6days! Look well pregnant! My stomach hurts defo gonna try laxatives x
