How long did you ladies take your pain meds/ stool softeners for?

I am still taking them. I got some bad tummy pains today

I took mine for the 5 days in the hospital and about 3 or 4 after coming home. (pain meds) I was given Norco's and they make me fall asleep right after taking them so I stopped even tho I still hurt. I bought stool softeners when I got home, but honestly, the bottle isn't even opened yet! I'd recommend taking those!

Yeah the stool softeners are fantastic. The pain meds make my heart get racey so I didn't take them today... uhh my stomach feels like crap!!

I had antinflammatory (sp?) meds for 4 days in the hospital and 1 more day when I got home. And let me tell you I really felt it when time came to take the pills!

whoa, you got those heart palpitations as well?
I was seriously convinced something was wrong with my heart after I had Mia.
Every time I would lay down I would feel as if my heart would speed up with each deep breath. It was rather strange, but it stopped happenening.

Having those heart problems really freaked me out because I thought something was wrong after having Connor but then I read side effects of the medication and realized that it could be caused by that. I was not enjoying that the least bit almost felt like there was something in my heart.
