Okay sooo for the past 2 weeks i've been dealing with painful constipation😓 it's so bad nothing helps besides hot baths but it's summer in august and i hate taking baths every time i wanna go to the bathroom. no matter how much water i drink or how healthy i eat, i'm constipated. it physically hurts sometimes to go to the bathroom. i literally have to sit on the toilet for an hour just to go barely. i told my ob and she basically brushed it off and said it's my iron pills. apparently i can't take a stool softener :( and sometimes i do get very bad lower back pains from it and i've mistaken it for back contractions and have went to the hospital 🙄 it just sucks soooo bad has anyone else been through this or at least know how to help with the lower back pain i get from it? and sometimes i get a stabbing pain up there.. but that's pretty uncommon
