hemorrhoids?

Question

21w4d and I have hemorrhoids! My doctor told me to go to L&D if I had any bleeding or contractions since pressure in the rectal area is an early sign of labor. Still trying to deal with the recrum pressure/discomfort. Anybody else going through this? Or has anyone ever been through this in the second trimester? Advice or support would be great.

Answer

I had them bad in my second trimester from all of the pressure! I just used Prep. H ointment and it helped a lot. Luckily they went away by my third trimester (well it's still there I think but no longer inflamed/painful)

Answer

Epsom salt baths seriously helped me!!! I took 3 a day for 10-20 minutes each and they were gone pretty quickly. Also, witch haze wipes help a lot too.

Answer

I suffered all through my second pregnancy with them and they always bled when I went to the toilet it's awful and scary 😖 I use to get prescribed creams to put up there to help shrink them
