That's how mine started. I've been dealing with pain for about a month now at least. Try prep h and sitz bath if you have the time.
I tried sitz bath once and unfortunately never had the time to do it again.

That definitely sounds like hemroids! Wet wipes when wiping really help

Avatar

have they gone away? It doesn’t usually hurt afterwards only when I go to the restroom but I don’t see them

Avatar

yes what’s what I use! Have you had them? What helps them go away?

Avatar

Ok chronically have them 😅 what really helped me was add bidets to my bathroom, of course least amount of straining as possible

Avatar

I feel like I’m not even constipated so I feel like I hardly strain and I got my gallbladder out so it’s not ever hard 😂😅 sorry TMI!

Avatar

I got mine out too girl lol 😂 they seemed to be better for me after the surgery

It doesn't feel like it completely went away I kinda feel it still but it's less painful but I also haven't used prep H in a while because I'm always in a rush to take care of baby.

Like said I also have a bidet at home which helps a lot.

I also used witchhazel wipes after bideting then prep H.
Be proactive about it because I ignored it until I got a blood clot so now recovery is taking longer than I want it to

Avatar

how did you get a blood clot? How does that happen and how did you know? Sorry so many questions.

Avatar

do you see your Dr for it?? I’m like what do I do, never experienced this before! Lol

Avatar

I saw a dr when I got my first taste of this misery and he prescribed a topical steroid along with a topical pain reliever. Those worked better than your standard prep h for shrinking the hemorrhoids.

Avatar

how does it work if there internal? I don’t see them so I’m assuming their on the inside

Avatar

It's ok lol. Honestly I wish they prepared us more for PP issues and what you might deal with and how to treat it or at least preventive treatment.
I just got a blood clot after a bowl movement one day and I was like ok gotta treat this now.
Like when I wiped there was an actual blood clot on the tissue 🥴
I had a bit of blood a few days before the blood clot happened and I ignored it then I got a blood clot.
I don't remember if I was straining that day but I know that I had rough poops that week ☠️

It could be a tear (anal fissure) on the inside and not hemorrhoids. I would talk to your doctor about it or see a specialist and they can help you.

Avatar

That's how mine started, it's the worst, I'm sorry!

Avatar

I do not see a doctor! I just kinda deal since they don't so much lol

Avatar

how long does it take to heal if you know? Everytime I go number two, the first wipe is blood 😩 it’s making me nervous

Avatar

Surgery (don’t recommend if you want another baby because it could happen again) or you will just have to make sure your poop is soft and/or tolerable. Most people live with it forever and learn how to keep it from not hurting/bleeding.

Has anyone else had issues with their friends that aren't pregnant or have kids?

I have a friend at work and we've become really close over the years. But ever since I become pregnant she just doesn't understand anything I'm going through which is fine except for the fact that the past few days I have been exhausted physically and socially. We have been helping another friend out for about a month now and we've had to keep him entertained as he's going through a rough time right now and it's drained me socially . my friend at work is frustrated because I'm not talking a lot and I'm exhausted and she doesn't understand why and I'm just curious if anybody else has had issues with friends that are not going to the same thing or have gone through the same thing as you connecting with you because she's literally mad at me. She stopped talking to me at work today and I just don't understand what to do.

31 weeks pregnant and lonely

How to deal with loneliness in pregnancy when your boyfriend goes out with his friends drinking 😅🥲 I only have three friends, two are never really free and one lives back in Liverpool and has her own set of friends where she goes to raves and goes on holiday with them lol. My boyfriend is going out soon for the night as it’s sunny and I’ll just be sat here crying like every single time! When does it stop 🤣
