Enough with the poop already!

[tracymom1]

I absolutely cannot believe the immense bowel pressure I have been feeling. I am pooping like crazy because I keep getting all these cramps that put so much pressure down there that it makes me have to go! Last week I had a bout with diarrhea but that has long since passed and now its just this crazy cramping. It is driving me nuts! I actually started using DS's Hylands diaper rash ointment because I am getting chafed from the TP!! (BTW, it really works wonders ).

Am I the only one? Is anyone else going through this, too?

That aspect of my digestive system has also been a little out of whack the last couple weeks. I assumed it was just a combination hormones and shifting anatomy as my body prepares for the birth.

Same problem here! In fact, there are times where I feel like I might poop the baby out...

[koalove]

yes. bowl pressure. yes. poop. yes. annoyed and getting hemmeroids from the pooping. *sigh* aint pregnancy grand?

Blargh... yeah!

[eli's mama]

well i just *feel* like i have to go all the time. I find myself in the bathroom a lot! But I'm being really careful not to sit there for too long because I did have some hemmorrhoid issues earlier and I am not anxious to revisit that!
