Hemmoroids

[PitBullMommy]

YUCK. This might be TMI, but really...what on this board isn't? So, the last few times I've used the toilet I've noticed that it was kinda sore...then today I just went and there was some blood when I was wiping. It wasn't from the front, that was all clear..it was from the back, when I...went. I'm assuming it's hemmoroids. Anyone else have this joyous symptom?

 

[Vickie]

I don't yet (and hopefully won't). Hope you get to feeling better soon

Oh yes. Try to drink lots of water, that has really helped me. Also, fiber is important. My midwife also has me take White Oak Bark. I was able to find it in a pill form.

I haven't had this but I know that it's pretty normal during pregnancy. Hopefully it goes away soon!!

 

[JessNJeremy]

I just started getting a little pain and blood when i ...go. and likewise, it's not from the front yuck! and ouch! I think I need to drink more water anyway because I've also been getting really light headed recently. hopefully that'll help

I haven't had it either, but I've read that lots of fiber, water and kegels helps! Good luck! I'm praying I don't get them. I'm more worried about those than labor! At least labor has something good at the end (no pun intended)

Hmmpf

I didn't get them with my first, but it looks like I'll be getting them with this one.

Just noticing a little of what you are the last day or so.

 

[PitBullMommy]

Thanks guys...glad to know I'm not the only one suffering...just wish none of us had to have them!

OMG! I had them REALLY bad last week! I had them with my first pregnancy too. All I can say is TUCKS!! Go get Tucks medicated wipes and use them everytime you go to the bathroom! Even if your only going pee... use them on your rear and within 24 hours mine were gone completely! I am still using them so they wont some back though. Good luck

Yes, unfortunately I have them. I have never had these before and noticed a bump that shouldn't be there along with discomfort (sorry, TMI). I have been using preperation H, but it's not going away. I see the doc on the 4th so hopefully they go away by then, if not, the doc needs to help me get rid of it. It is so gross. I told my hubby about it and just laughed, I just wanted to deck him, lol!!!! It's not funny. If only men had to go through what us women go through, they would be B****es too, lol!!!

By the way, taylor2, where do you get TUCKS medicated wipes, I'm in desperate need????

 

[taylor2]

Csparks, you can get Tucks at any drug store. Walgreens, Rite Aid, Walmart... wherever you normally shop... they are in the aisle with the laxatives and stools softeners. They come in a box. They are medicated with Witch Hazel. I highly recommend them! The directions say to use them 6 times a day, or after each bowel movement. I used them about twice as much as directed and mine went away literally by the next time I had to go...

 

[GAURDIANANGEL]

i don't have them.
sorry for you guys though
hope you get better

Thanks Taylor2, I will be on the look out. I hate buying that stuff in public. Why don't I just get on the intercom and announce to the whole store that I am suffering from the roids.

I know. I hate buying that stuff too.. but you have to think...those people that ring you up are used to it. It's not like your the first person in the world to be suffering from these nasty things! Just go right when the store opens, the least busiest time! lol

Yes, they are VERY painful! Especially when you have a bowel movement. It feels like razor blades! (sorry) but it does. And if you didn't know better, you'd think they were razor blades, because when you wipe, there is blood. Luckily, there are over the counter remedies that work very well!

Sorry. I heard blafckberries help, but I'm not sure how true that is.

You got the description just right...it hurts SO bad!
