Need advice!

So little back story I’m 30 years old I have two kids,
one is 2 year old and the other is 6 months old.
I haven’t gotten my period yet since my second was born and a little TMI but I haven’t been able to poop the same since too it is big, hard and 5/7 days a week there is blood … I do have a little bit of stress in my life from my siblings I’m not going to get into.. so there is that on top of being a stay at home mother to two teething beautiful babies.
ALSO I haven’t been able to loose my weight. I was so small before I had my kids and now I’m big. So big I look pregnant! It’s really getting to me idk what to do :(

Are you breastfeeding? It took me close to 8 months to have a period after my second.
Your diet may need to change for your stools to soften, definitely more water! (I know know easier said than done some days)

I know it's hard because it could be the lack of stress. And mommy also has to take care of her body too and go see a dr. And take time away.

If you are Breastfeeding, that could be why you are not having a period. As far as stool, did your diet change, also are you drinking enough water? Have you tried probiotics? If all else fails maybe speak to your gp about it and maybe even a dietician to figure out what's going on with your body not expelling waste as it should. Constipation can also negatively affect weight.
