I had my baby on Sunday. I was able to have a bowel movement a few hours later. When we came home, for about two-three days I would get super bad cramps and diarrhea. Now it's been two days since I've had a bowel movement, and I've been getting super sharp pains in my left lower side, along with feeling like my hemorrhoids are throbbing. My doctor said to use colace. Has anyone else gone through this?? Did colace (stool softener) work for you?
