I had my baby five weeks ago, and for the past two weeks pooping has been a problem. I'm not constipated - going almost every day - but when I go my poopies are huge, huge and painful. I'm talking "Is there another baby coming out" kind of painful.
So the last two days its gotten worse: and today and yesterday I've been noticing alot of fresh blood in the bowl after the poo-baby escapes.
I'm breastfeeding and therefore drinking about three to four litres of water a day. I'm exercising everyday, and my diet is healthy, with lots of fiber and vitamins and no alcohol. I don't think I have hemmoroids. I highly suspect the blood is caused by the sheer size.
Any suggestions on how to make my enormous poops go away? I'm getting scared to go and it's crappy having to bite down on a towel. Every time I do one, it goddamm it hurts.
Please help me soon. I'm due to have another one tomorrow and I just don't think my poor ass can take it much longer.
