Tmi For Sure But Need Help
Posted: 11-02-07 09:21am

Ok I woke up this morning and went to the bathroom and took a poop (it was really long and really big lol) and it hurt when I went not too bad but like one sharp pain when it came out (sorry for all the tmi) anyways I went to wipe and look down (because of Dr. Oz on Oprah I ALWAYS look at my poop hehe) and there was some blood at the bottom of the bowl and when I wiped (i wanted to see if it was coming from my Vajayjay or my butt) and it was coming from my butt...I called my doctor but hes not in until 1 which is stupid but oh well so I was just wondering if this is somehow normal during pregnancy..or if anyones ever experienced this? Btw I have not been constipated all at my whole pregnancy but I have been having rather large poops lately...so please help if ya can Smile Thanks girls!

yea, that kinda happened to me too. It was so light though I barely could see the blood, and I only saw it on the toilet paper, not in the toilet. When I called the doctor, the lady that answered the phone said that it didn't sound like anything to worry about, but if it got worse to definetly go to the er, cuz it's better to be on the safe side.

Oh yeah, 'roids. They are very common in pregnancy. Mention it to your doctor at your next appointment. And take it easy. If you *whispers* butt hole hurts, you should call the doctor and ask if you can use some hemorroid cream

You will probably have them on and off for the rest of your life. Sad I'm sorry. But it is true.

Don't strain when you 'go' - just don't really push it out hard. And hard stools can aggravate the soreness.

If you want to call your doctor back at 1, you call. Smile They can give you more pinpointed advice on what to do FOR YOU. And I know it would make you feel more comfortable to get the right advice for you. Smile

I believe it has something to do with the extra blood a woman has when she's pregnant. A lot of women do get consitpated during pregnancy. I'm not really sure what causes them. Not every woman has pain from them or even knows they are there, but they just appear sometimes.

It is the extra blood that women get. And I have had them since I was 16. But they are internal ones. I rarely get external ones. The doctor told me, when I was in my early 20's I probably got them in pregnancy.

Well I called my doctor and they said that it didnt sound like hemmoroids because I wasnt bleeding that much and because it doesnt bleed every time I go so they think i just irritated my mucus membrane?

Lucky you, hemorrhoids are horrible. I should know, I suffer soooo badly with external ones. I can't actually remember that last time I DIDN'T bleed when going to the loo.. but I can imagine how scary it must be the first time it happens!

Oh thats terrible, Zanny. I've only had external ones about 4 times. But the fact that I know how many times I've had them, tells me they are very memorable. And NOT in a good way!

Nope, definitely not in a good way. They've been so bad lately, every cream or ointment the doctor has prescribed has done NOTHING to ease them. My only option now is surgery, & that certainly doesn't sound fun.

Preparation H has a soothing gel that helped ease the discomfort of the external ones I had when I was pregnant. Nothing took the pain away, but the cool gel helped a lot
