[quote=Anonymous]Since this forum doesn't seem to shy away from the poop talk, I figured I would ask for some help!

About a week and a half ago I started having a lot of trouble having a bowel movement so I saw my OB/gyn. They told me to do colace and miralax. I've been on this regimen for about a week and a half and I'm still really struggling. I gave myself an enema last night with the OK of my regular doc, and the only way I was able to have a bowel movement the few days before that was by using a glycerine suppository. Things were coming out in small pieces and kind of....flat and compressed looking. The enema kind of helped, but today I keep having the urge to go and pushing, and nothing is coming out. I'm starting to get scared I have some kind of blockage or something. I'm seeing my OB/gyn on Tuesday so hope to get some more help then. I also introduced prunes into my diet.

Do you guys have any other tips? I still have 4 months to go and I can't deal with this the whole time![/quote]
