So...this morning I was awoken to the strong urge to poop. My biggest fear after labor was coming true. Obviously I know I had to eventually poop again, but the thought of having to push (after receiving some minor tearing) scared me. I was so nervous because I was afraid of destroying my stitches or it being painful because of my stitches...Ladies lemme tell you...THAT WAS A BIG FAT LIE! Releasing the pressure and stool I had backed up from Monday, was great! No pain, no tears, just pure enjoyment of releasing a nice poop. No more upset stomach, no more pressure, just a nice session of toilet and you time.

So, why did I make this post you may ask. For all the mommies who just went through labor and are terrified of the same thing I was...pooping. Thank you and have a great day
