Painful bowel movements... (Maybe TMI)

3-weeks PP ; C-Section 7/04

Any PP mommies out there completely dried out from breastfeeding? I’m producing milk absolutely fine, my little one is gaining and it seems like all my fluids are going to my breasts.

I’m drinking almost 10-15 water bottles a day but my skin is super dry and worst of all it’s making me really constipated.... therefore really really painful bowel movements.

TMI : not hemorrhoids since it’s so painful but I guess a little tear on the inside (anal fissure) because of the dry constipation

Any ladies have some tips? I’m drinking prune juice now to help out the flow but your girl’s in pain 😰
