I'm not sure which is worse: feeling pukey all day or not being able to poop. Yeah you know what I'm talking about. Those of you who have this problem. Well, my meds are making me constipated - bad. I've never had this problem thankfully, until now.
So the other afternoon after not pooping for two straight days and beginning to cramp, I took a Dulcolax. Now, stupid me not thinking just took it. Didn't read the box, didn't think about what it really was. I just wanted to poop. Uh huh. At dinner that night I started cramping thinking it was because I hadn't, you know. Nope. I was up all night.
So, the next day I'm talking to my hubby and like a stupid idiot asked if Dulcolax was a laxative (yeah, it's in the title I know!) or a softener. DUUHHHHH! Not to mention it's not on my recommended meds to take while pregnant and if I remember correctly, you're not really supposed to take laxatives while pregnant.
So anyway, here I am two days later and same problem...again. Only I will not be taking Dulcolax this time. I tried Colace and it's not really working. I go to the doc. on Tuesday so maybe he will be able to suggest something. I actually halved my dose of the medicine that is causing this thinking that might help. It's only been two days but I haven't seen any relief. This is going to be great conversation in the doctors office this time! Yeah, like they never heard this before. HA
