until my husband couldn’t stand my complaint anymore he searched in the internet about hemorrhoids
though the hurt’s gone once i see my baby (have i told u that he’s very cute ???) lol

get well soon !

I know you said hey ladies but….

• Apply an ice pack (with a soft covering) to the affected area several times a day. Ice may help decrease swelling and discomfort. Some women find cold compresses saturated with witch hazel to be soothing.

• Soak your bottom in warm water, in a tub or a sitz bath. A sitz bath is small plastic basin that you fill with water and position over your toilet, allowing you to submerge your rectal area simply by sitting down.

• Try alternating cold and warm treatments. Start with an ice pack followed by a warm sitz bath.

• Gently but thoroughly clean the affected area after each bowel movement using soft, unscented, white toilet tissue, which causes less irritation than colored, scented varieties. Moistening the tissue can help, too. Many women find using pre-moistened wipes more comfortable than using toilet tissue. You can buy medicated wipes (such as Tucks) made specifically for people with hemorrhoids.

• Ask your healthcare practitioner to recommend a safe topical anesthetic or medicated suppository. There are many hemorrhoid-relief products on the market, but consult your practitioner before trying one on your own. Most of these products should be used for a short course of treatment only (a week or less). Continued use can cause even more inflammation.

If your own preventive and relief efforts don’t help — or if you notice bleeding — consult your doctor or midwife.

normal
witch hazel pads
hemorrhoid cream
sitz baths
drink lots of water
eat more fiber

Yes, this is normal due to the pressure of the baby. Preparation H or Tucks Pads should be fine to use but consult your doctor first. Also, take a look at your diet. Constipation is common in pregnancy so fibrous foods (fruits and veggies) are important. Avoid pushing when having a BM.

I feel you mama, I’m 39 wks + 3 dys and I have 1 but it doesn’t hurt thank god.. It is totally normal try to avoid pushing when you "go" and you could try a sitz bath or some hem cream. I never really did either because mine didn’t really hurt but I hope it works for you mama congrats
