Constipation.

It's not often we have a good conversation around bowel movements, so let's just saddle up and give it a go (or not, in my case).

I haven't gone since Friday. That's only two days, so it doesn't sound awful, especially to those of you who have been pregnant and basically gone 9months without being regular. I've gone this long before and it wasn't that big of a deal. Unfortunately now my stomach HURTS. A girlfriend of mine made a wonderful chili for dinner last night. Delish, but not something I want 'on board' for an extended period of time. Oh, and how have I made it this far and failed to mention the gas? Sweet baby Jesus in a manger it is awful! I think my body might be rotting from the inside. Tonight I drank a bunch of fiber and hopefully it'll help. If not, well then tomorrow I'm busting out the big guns - coffee.

See coffee and I were divorced a couple of years ago. We had a passionate love affair and one day coffee turned on me. My tummy now gurgles at the mere thought and should I give in, let's just say I'd better not be far from the facilities.

Anything else good out there to try? Short of asking J to go all Bobby Brown on my ass? (if you don't know what I'm talking about, I'm too much of a lady to repeat it. Hey, don't laugh! Okay, who am I kidding? Let's just say she once suffered from a similar scenario and BB helped her out by doing some manual 'coaxing' with his finger. ::GAG::) Wow, this post took an unfortunate turn. Anywho! Your remedies would be appreciated.

I'm glad we had this talk.

Side note: Still no AF, temp shot up today but I took my temp late and enjoyed a couple glasses of wine last night, I'm starting to get pms symptoms (sore boobs, cramping -although that might be my giant bloated poo filled belly).

  1. C has a lot of digestive "issues." One thing that always helps him is a good tummy rub! :)
