Ok so TMI here but I need some suggestions.

I have pooped 4 times already today and hemmi (my Roid) is not happy about it. I am using witch hazel wipes to clean the area but I so sore and tired from pooping.

What can I do to ease this constant pooping? Is it impending labor? I am 40 & 1 today!

I would love to hear what you ladies do???

I love these poop threads!

I am a big fan of my water and lavender essential oil spray. It's very soothing. I will also be known to dampen a pad with it and hang out around the house that way.

I hope it's impending labor for you!!

Try putting the witch hazel (or pre-moistened wipes) in the fridge. The cool will be a little shock at first, but it is very soothing.

Don't know if this will help, but I'm taking two stool softeners at night before I sleep for softer more productive poops. Takes it down to 1 or 2 a day. When they're not as soft I have more, less productive poops. btw, the stool softener will *not* act as a laxative... just hydrates and helps soften.

My 4 prunes a day helps my stools pass by Roy D. easily.....yep, I named him. He just showed up at my *doorstep* a couple of weeks ago out of the blue. I also take baths with epsom salt and witch hazel.

Sorry I don't have suggestions for you and your new 'friends' but I hear you on the pooping. I said to DH last night "I'm so tired of pooping!" when I had been in the bathroom for the 4th time that day.

hope they get better for you soon.

You guys crack me up! I am so sorry for the mamas dealing with roid & poop problems... the only problem I have is that I am going to pee myself if you guys keep this up!

Me too, when I yell to DH for more TP he yells back "I just brought you some!" then he says it's a good thing we shop at Costco.
