A TMI Discussion: Poop

[tkford216]

A lot of us have been complaining of constipation. Anybody with me on the other side of the fence? Since Friday, it's been sudden, loose, and nasty, and I really don't want to be dealing with this at work. Any suggestions for relief?

Thanks in advance.

For both problems try - tropicana farm stand juice (in the fridge juice section). It's veggie fruit juice. And it helps regulate. Must have fiber? Lol

Yes! I am so glad you mentioned this! I mean, it's not too bad, but I feel like it's every time I have to pee. Which is all.the.time. Luckily school is out for summer so I'm not having to worry about this with a room full of second graders.

I'm right there with you unfortunately. I'm kinda wondering if it's something I ate rather than pregnancy but really have no idea. DH is fine. I'm trying to stick with a BRAT diet until things calm down in there.

auchick913 yea I have a big jug of applesauce and some plain cereal in front of me. Hoping it helps. Sorry you're in the same boat! Not fun.

tkford216, I'm there with you except I seem to alternate between the two extremes, usually in the same day. I was wondering if anyone had suggestions for the bloat. I'm tired of having to suck it in all the time!

I'm for sure on the other side of the fence, but I also don't remember much constipation with DS either. I'm a very regular girl! Except I'm just going more often, and not on my typical time like I used to. So that has me a little more edgy, just never know what's gonna make me have to go!

Thank you for bringing this up tkford216. I am right there with you but I didn't have the proverbial balls to bring it up!

All I have to say is... Period poops have nothing on pregnancy poops.

Oh also, if it makes you feel better - we took the dog for a walk this weekend and I had to speed walk back home because of a pregnancy poop. Honestly, if I had to walk one more house further, I would have shit my pants.

Me, but it is my norm sadly. I have awful digestive problems and we haven't found a cause yet.

[dreadpiratebuttercup]

I've been constipated, but every few days it all catches up and I have the poops all day. I don't know which one I would rather deal with.

[trtlcrzy]

I'm in this club.

[britterrss]

I alternate between constipated/bloated and diarrhea. Yaaaayyyyy.

HAHAHA!!! Warning: don't drink water while reading this!

I've been pretty regular, but I"m also still taking Benefiber 2x a day, so that might be helping....
