Hemorroids anyone?
Oh my gosh... I've been so careful, eaten plenty of fiber, done everything in my power not to "strain" when going to the bathroom and now I have hemorrhoids... at least I think I do. I see my OB today so I'll talk to her but wondering if any of you have encountered it, how you treated it, what I have to look forward to, etc. The good thing is it doesn't hurt... not yet anyway. Just want to get this taken care of, if possible, now, before delivery.
Oh no! That is one of my biggest fears. I can't offer any advice but am crossing my fingers you don't have them!
Awe I'm sorry :(. The pressure of our big huge uterus is putting so much pressure down there that sometimes despite our best efforts we end up with hemheroids anyway :(. But there are "tucks pads" that have some sort of medication on them that is supposed to really help with the discomfort and swelling. Ask your OB if that are ok to use while pregnant. Some women tuck them into place and leave them there changing them every potty break.
Good luck
