This may be TMI, but for those of you who don't mind sharing... what is the on gest you've gone without having a BM and what we're your symptoms? I am so gassy, haven't gone in 6 days. The gas is so bad it's causing chest pain. I'm taking fiber supplement and stool softeners! ugh :(
It took me well over a week at one point but stool softeners a lot of water and yogurt everyday keeps me regular now... But to get it going I used an enema, I had to, I was crying, I couldn't sit down on my bottom, I was laying in the fetal position miserable.
I agree with your sis about the enema, 6 days is a really long time, definitely not good for you
I wasn't as bad, but I drank a fiber supplement smoothie and couldnt get off the toilet.
I was constipated for weeks and I didn't want to take anything until I felt like I was going to push out my daughter lol. I'm not sure if it'll help you but it definitely helped me I started drinking "green machine" from naked like a cup or half and now I go with no problem at all and it doesn't gripe your stomach
And I would have not gotten off that toilet until something came out. I would of have a book, a phone something to keep me occupied. I would of had the lights off everything @maandiii 😂
I'm right there I have it extremely bad I just use milk of magnesia and stay home all day cause in 6 hrs I clear everything out
girl I sat in my bathroom trying for like an hour the other day lol. it was so disappointing! I'm bout to drink me a whole bottle of prune juice today lol @jboyd
Lmao @maandiii I am so sorry I can not help you on this one. I can't imagine nor feel your pain lol I would personally go crazy
I know. My sister in an RN and she wants me to do an enema at home! @jboyd I'm so ready to be regular again!
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...

Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...
Science!
My friend posted this on facebook last night and said her kids were asleep within minutes. It's a song that scientists created to help people fall asleep. I was skeptical but I thought what the hay, I'll try it out. I didn't bank on Dh falling asleep, but both him and lo were asleep by minute 2. And lo slept six straight hours. ?
Hahaha @jboyd I was getting so impatient it was miserable! @almiita I may try that too. I've been scared to take a fiber laxative for fear of it hitting while I'm not at home lol. thanks @calismommy I'll try that too! anything at this point helps. @bianca_rose I'm so scared to do it myself! @ready4mommydaughtermoments I can't have any dairy right now with my morning sickness. I had a breakfast smoothie the other morning and threw it up 10 minutes later :( same with ice cream or milk or cheese! it sucks. I had some apple juice and toast this morning and I was able to have some relief!! thank God! but I need to get regular.
