TMI for some.... but I’m really scared to poop lol I have second degree tearing. Anyone got some advice 😖

Can they give you anything to soften your stool?

@itslindsss, they gave me a pill but the nurse said they don’t work the best. lol

@princetonsmama, thanks I will do that! I’m so nervous lol

@raelene_g Prune juice will make it easier to poop for sure. Not a lot though you don't want the runs lol ive been so constipated this whole pregnancy an that has helped 😊

Eat things with fiber in it anything to make you have to poop, prune juice

Eat mushy, and your poo shall be mushy. 💩. Bananas, prunes, avocado, hummus... it will be nice and soft. 😊

@hadleemae2018, just ordered a glass, it looks nasty 😂🤮

@lulu85_18, @itslindsss, thanks ladies!!

@raelene_g its not the greatest taste at all but it will definitely help! Well I sure hope it helps you.

Ah I have no advice girl but hang in there!😫💗

@tatianaaav, trying!! Lol thank you 😊

I ate plums after my first pregnancy and it helped me.

Get miralax and mix it in some juice

I was the same way then one day I said forget this I gotta go lol I had stitches as well but they didn’t hurt

@tyshaijames2018, Ugh as if labor wasn’t enough lol

@raelene_g, girl yes lol I know congrats on the baby ❤️😘

Mirelax and pear juice helps.

Take the stool sofeners. I had 2nd degree tearing and didn't poop for a week. Just don't force it, let it come on its own. Relax.

@lifewithlynniejade88, thanks! I’m trying 😊

I eventually just decided to brave the toilet, I had been taking the stool softeners, eating to help poop, etc. I just sat there in agony and pain eventually getting the poop out 😂😭😭 the second poop for me was still awful, but after that it got 100 times better! Congrats on the little baby though! They make it all worth it!
