ok mommies I've had 2 csections and two vba2c ...my question is how long after a vaginal birth does it take to make a bowel movement I haven't had one since before I gave birth Wednesday ... I have horrible gas and I burp but no bowel movement my back and stomach hurt but I can't tell if its because of my uterus contracting from it coming back down in size and breastfeeding or if its because I haven't had a bowel movement...
they gave me a dose of some yesterday at the hospital and an all natural laxative and I've been non stop drinking apple juice and water so still nothing ?!
I didnt poop for 5 days after i had a c sec. it was my first baby, but even taking stool softeners i didnt go. It just takes a little bit
