Pooping is so hard... Honestly if the urge wasn't there I'd just stop trying. For you FTMs out there the first few times you poop after baby is worse than anything and no one ever warns you at least no one ever warned me... I have my supplies ready... Btw they tell you everything you'll need for baby when you get home but here are a few things I needed for myself. Tucks medicated wipes they are a god send and the pads that are so big and long that you could make a raft out of them. now take the tucks and line those pads with them sit gently down and enjoy the soothing effect.They give you mesh undies at the birthing center i asked for a bunch of these to go home with, it saved my cotton ones from a peroxide bath or the trash. Oh and if your planning on breast feeding make a box or something for the couch or where ever you're going to be with baby the most for the first few weeks put granola bars or healthy snacks a water bottle extra diapering stuff so its within reaching so you don't have to get up during feeding sessions they take a while during the first few weeks so you need to be ready for a long sit. Wow I started with poop and ended on prep... Sorry must have prego A.D.D.
