I've had IBS since high school, so about 5 years, it was stress induced at first and diagnosed with lots of GI tests, and has gotten slightly less intense over the years. But OMG it's enough to have morning sickness and pregnancy symptoms and then my butthole has to constantly be on fire too?!!

I call them my "episodes" because just like my favorite TV shows, I have a lot of them lol. They always happen at night when I'm home, NEVER in the morning or out in public. And it begins with throwing up, cramps, then horrible ranky diarrhea.

I'm almost convinced that I know what labor feels like because the way my stomach churns and cramps and the fire that my butthole undergoes is pure torture. I breath, yell, and brace myself for the next cramp like a pro laborer lol.

👇🏾That's me on the toilet 😂🤢😩
