I've been pooping more often... not sure if it's cuz there's no room for storing the poop.
I'd rather have this problem than the alternative but it's so weird to poop now, like I have to practice my breathing and pushing already on the toilet haha
And now hemorrhoids. I had them a ton last time. Not so much this time. I should be took pregnant for this. At least I knew where the blood came from so I didn't freak
Bladder leakage. After pushing 3 hours, my ability to hold anything in my bladder disappeared. Much better now, but I was rocking depends for quite awhile.
I have a cyst/clogged pore in my vag area. It's been a week, and getting larger and larger. I finally got it to pop yesterday. But then I got to play where is this blood coming from every time I wiped the rest of the day a well. But it feels SOO much better.
Also, so much discharge since yesterday. I don't remember this before.
Postpartum swelling is the worst. I can't wait to pee and/or sweat out all of these fluids. Despite birthing an 8lb baby (plus however many pounds the placenta, amniotic fluid, and the blood loss from the birth and postpartum hemorrhaging weighed), this morning I weigh exactly the same as I did on the morning of my induction.
I know I'm a glutton for punishment looking at the scale this soon after giving birth, but I love tracking all the things.
This happened to me too. 10 lbs of baby and 2 placentas and I weighed the same for a week after birth. Now 4 weeks later I'm down 30 lbs but have 30 to go.
I'm just gross all over. Swamp crotch in full effect today and I keep checking to make sure it's not leaking fluid. It's only 9am and I'm wishing I had put an extra pair of underwear in my purse today.
I'm also still pregnant, but getting night sweats. It's right under my boobs and so much yuck. Last night I ended up changing my shirt in the middle of the night because I had two big wet spots.

My hair was so curly from the sweating last night that I decided it would be easier to just wash it and start all over than try to battle it with my straightener. I have not washed my hair 2 days in a row in like 2 years.
So prior to my water breaking, I had some dull cramps that I attributed to constipation. I took Milk of Magnesia and it REALLY worked. Having the poops while in labor really kind of sucked. On the upside, I got everything out and didn't poop while pushing!
Varicose veins of the vag...anyone else have 'em? I didn't know this was a thing until I called the Dr cuz I felt like I got punched and had weird swelling. She took 1 look and said "yep, you have one here, and here, and here...and another about to go here..." and told me a) it'll just get worse until baby arrives and b) if I ever want more kids to get them taken care of (how do you get them "taken care of?") first because they will be worse and appear earlier every time.
Also..if you have them and haven't taken a mirror down there to look yet..just DON'T. I thought vag's were unattractive anyways..this takes it to a whole other level and I won't even let H see it anymore. Bleh.
They gave me Milk of Magnesia postpartum with DD. Cue me having constant diarrhea the day after she was born. This time I told them no Milk of Magnesia and things worked out just fine.

I thought seriously about taking some Phillips Sunday night when I was up with bad stomach/back pain. So thank you all for sharing because I won't do that again

Haha- maybe don't jump to the highest dose...😳I couldn't tell whether it was time to push, or I actually just had to go to the bathroom again!
Has anyone else felt a pinching up in their vag? I've noticed it the past few days, mostly when sitting and I move around.
Lightning crotch?
We'll.... I've had the sharp pain right at the front of my pelvic bone, I always assumed that what was referred to as lightning crotch.
This is totally new through two pregnancies, and feels like someone is literally pinching me inside my vag. But it definitely comes and goes as I move positions. I know baby boy is low, I'm wondering if it is his hands or something I'm feeling? That doesn't seem right, but I can't figure out what else it could be.
I'm dying at the milk of magnesia stories. You ladies are brave. That stuff is like stuffing a grenade up your butt and waiting for the BOOM.
I forgot to take my stool softener last night and now I'm stressed. Every time I take it the first poop feels like it'll break me in two. I'm so scared of that being my first PP poop so I am taking it this morning and hoping it works its magic at some point today.

That does sound different, and very uncomfortable. I hope baby switches positions to ease that sensation
