Ugh. Last week was amazing, couldn't stop pooping. Was a welcome change from a lifelong struggle of constipation. I was thinking that maybe the 3rd trimester isn't so bad.

Must be noted I'm eating so much right now I'm gaining 5lbs a week and then bam. This week the pooping stops 😬😵 I've taken miralax and prunes for a couple days. Nothing. Today I'm desperate and do something I never do.

I'm drinking a nasty cup of coffee. Hubby says it should work. I hate coffee. No matter how many ways people have tried to get me into it I've never had a coffee I've enjoyed. I don't do well with caffeine either. Makes my heart funny and gives me a headache, even in low doses. But I'm desperate. At this point what's inside me is probably the equivalent of a second baby, one could argue with how much I eat that could even be triplets in there now. I'm having ptsd remembering my postpartum "birthing" experience. Nurse came to check us out of the hospital, hubby told her to come back in a few minutes, and she wisely didn't return for an hour.

So here I am with my miralax spiked coffee praying for a miracle. And nothing. Bet I go into labor soon and poop everywhere. At this point I welcome it. Only thing I've achieved is a headache, heart flutters and one super hyper baby.

Anyone have anything else I can do? I don't even feel like I need to go 😬 but you can't eat as much as I do and have nothing
