Hi ladies,
I've just returned from my weekly installment of bowel movement which was pretty awful as usual. To think at the start of my pregnancy I was actually going better than I used to...and now...11 weeks in, it's all come to a stand still.
Basically, when I manage to go, it's very dry (gets stuck-sorry tmi!) despite the fact I drink a lot of fluids to help cope with my nausea and then when I wipe there is blood on the tissue, which is bright red, however, none in the "stool" itself. Is this tearing or something worse and is there any way I can help ease the constipation? I already eat a lot of fruit, veg and whole grain bread etc so is there anything safe I can get from the pharmacy?
I am soooo sore right now!!!! Please help!!!
