Can postpartum Hemorrhoids feel like labour pushing pains?

Hi, sorry about the grim subject, but has anyone felt strong pushing pains postpartum (rectum), just before passing wind or going to the toilet? I am 2 weeks postpartum and have been fine, but today I felt like going through labour just because of a bowel movement. Is it likely to just be Hemorrhoids?

Solidarity, OP. Your body does weird and wonderful things, post-birth. Some less wonderful than others.

Bumping this in hopes someone who's experienced the same will be along soon, but in the meantime, maybe mention it to your midwife team and see if they can offer any advice too?
