[quote=Anonymous]Gas and rumbling are good signs things are starting to move. Work with them. - Long walk - Abdominal massage - look up the “I love you” or ILU massage for constipation - Yoga twists - Squats - Drink only warm liquids For now, eat very little and drink a lot.I would temporarily decrease your fiber. If you overdo it when constipated you can just make things worse. Decrease your anxiety about this. It makes things worse. Try meditating if that’s something you’re comfortable with. Sit on the toilet for no more than 5 minutes at a time. Only light pushes. And breathe *out* when you push and then inhale through your mouth. This gets your diaphragm properly involved. The above is what works for me. I deal with IBS-C.[/quote]
