I'm 34weeks and I believe that I have a hemrroid? I have no clue what to do . It hurts to bad!!! Help pleaseee

[Briana23916]

Thank you ladies! I went to the dr today and she just told me to continue with the prep H and tucks wipes and all she said was that is was common. So I took the risk and came to work today and I am dreading that I came, thats forsure. I asked for her to put me on maternity leave and she doesnt want to bc my bp is good. But I have bad headaches as well and major swelling all through out the pregnancy I've had this.

Don't push when  you go number 2! It may sound stupid but I thought you were supposed to (parents never talked about it) until about 2 months ago! Just relax, take extra fiber and stool softeners and bananas should help too. Good luck!

I got my first one with my last pregnancy and it hurt for about a week. I never even realized what it was until the group b stress test when the doctor noticed it. This time I've had a little bit of trouble but nothing major and then jester day it burst while going to the bathroom, TMI I know but it's part of pregnancy. Try not to strain while you go bc that can really make them flare up and I know that's what has been my issue.

Yeah especially if it wasn't treated early it can def get worse which it seems like it did. Just take the day to treat n recover n hopefully by tomorrow you'll feel better!

Use a stool softener. It will help with moving your bowels bow and hopefully help prevent hemrroids in the future. Also continue using the prep H as often as it allows. If the hemrroid is that big, it will take a couple days to go down. Use the wipes and witch hazel for temporary relief.

I actually called the dr office and spoke to the dr on call and she told me it was very common in pregnancy before delivery?  She told me to buy tucks wipes along with some prep H cream. Now I just feel like it hasn't done much I can barely walk I didnt even go to work today because of the discomfort. Also I can't seem to poop. Is that normal also?

Briana hemroids r very common in pregnancy!  I'm sure ur dr has heard n seen worse things than a lil hemroid, don't be shy n get the help u need girlie. Its hard enough growing an extra person, make life easier n talk to ur Dr once u do I'm sure you'll feel a whole lot better!

As weird as this may sound, get some witch hazel, soak a toilet paper square with it and put it in between your cheeks and let it sit there for about 30 minutes. It will definitely calm the discomfort.,

I just feel akward to tell my doctor about it. Its been on going for a couple days now. But its gotten to the point where it hurts to poop lay down sit walk alll of that.

My doc always prescribed me cortisone cream. Try that and also using baby wipes to clean it good before applying the cream, they also feel better than toilet paper
