Just got out today apparently now you can leave without bowel movement doc said it could take a few days to a week just do stool softener but if u really just want to go drink some dieters tea Ballerina tea would be the best though if I don't go by Sunday I'm gonna drink the tea

Yeah they gave me milk of magnesium at the hospital I wasn't allowed to leave until I had one. but also the chicken broth does help they told me that in the hospital and all I kept ordering from food service was chicken noodle soup.

take milk of mag too. it helps

Took me 2 weeks but still hurts like crazy at 5 weeks pp idk if that's normal or not

Oh believe me I was too! You will eventually go though

@tee0318, thank you that makes me feel alittle better, I'm just scared

I didn't have a c section but it took a while for me to have a bowel movement too keep taking the pills

@rykerp15, You're welcome. I hope this helps.

I'm going to have to bc I have ate prunes, take the pills, drinking water. but thanks @babydavis915

@rykerp15, Just eat chicken broth and jello. When I had my daughter 8 years ago I couldn't leave until I had a successful bowel movement. Once I started eating the chicken broth I finally started having them. I suggest you have your mom get you some and just season it for taste.

That's what I was thinking they said it was ALL normal I'm kinda been freaking out @babydavis915

I can't believe they let you leave without having one. What helped me was chicken broth.
