Protosedyl is hydrocortisone creme that shrinks the haemorrhoids (sp?) and reduces the pain. You can buy it from the chemist (about $30) and it is safe to use in pregnancy.

Hate the haemorrhoids! Wait until after you have pushed that baby out! ]]> Thu, 22 Nov 2007 21:01:41 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=12428&PID=250932&title=tmi-question-here#250932 <![CDATA[TMI Question here... : i read it in my book and as i...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=12428&PID=250740&title=tmi-question-here#250740 Author: ElfsMum

I had wicked heamaroids during pregnancy and then they got worse after labour and pushing !

Now they are shocking, I need to go to the docs and get mine sorted out! Definately take benefibre, it works wonders!!

No one told me about these lovely things that happen because of pregnancy ]]> Thu, 22 Nov 2007 16:23:02 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=12428&PID=250739&title=tmi-question-here#250739 <![CDATA[TMI Question here... : yup as my mum said for labour,...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=12428&PID=250728&title=tmi-question-here#250728 Author: MissCandice

Yup, haemarrhoids are a pain in the arse alright (no pun intended ). I had them REALLY bad, and mine got worse as I got bigger with the pressure of bubs pushing 'down there'. And I still have them. I think I will just have to put up with them until I'm finished having babies and then get them removed

But, if you can clear them up at this early stage and keep on top of any constipation by taking metamucil or equivalent, you should be fine. ]]> Thu, 22 Nov 2007 13:54:16 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=12428&PID=250618&title=tmi-question-here#250618 <![CDATA[TMI Question here... : as i said in other post ask your...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=12428&PID=250403&title=tmi-question-here#250403 Author: ElfsMum

as i said in other post ask your midwife..she made sure i got the right stuff for pregnancy and can write a script..it's embarrassing to talk about but she didn't even bat an eyelid.. and lets face it she'll be seeing a lot more of me in the not too distant future:) ]]> Thu, 22 Nov 2007 07:11:45 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=12428&PID=250403&title=tmi-question-here#250403 <![CDATA[TMI Question here... : Kiwicrush are the best!

Kiwicrush are the best! Especially as it's so hot.
Hope they clear up soon

What is with all these things no one EVER tells you about pregnancy?! Hemorrhoids, leaky nips, swabs in places we don't want swabs, placenta delivery...

It's almost enough to put you off

A cold flannel will help relieve the swelling. A hot flannel will make it worse. I heard that cream is really good too from patients at work who swear by it. Kiwicrush is great for the bowels. I hope you are feeling better soon chick

I think I may have them too but very mild. I bought the cream over the internet to save me from embarrasment! It is called anusol- nice name huh

Start the Kiwicrush or benefibre to stop them getting worse. I have not been constipated at all but think the pressure has caused them. Ahh, another joy of pregnancy!]]> Wed, 21 Nov 2007 22:21:48 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=12428&PID=250358&title=tmi-question-here#250358 <![CDATA[TMI Question here... : I think I have hemmorhoids, was...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=12428&PID=250352&title=tmi-question-here#250352 Author: Shezamumof3

I think I have hemmorhoids, was constipated tonight and it was so sore to go and when I stood up it felt like there was a soccor ball up my butt!!(sorrryy but thats how it felt) I didnt see if there was blood but Im sure there was  

What can I do to relieve the swelling at home? Ive heard baths are good, my mum said a hor flannel aswell.,

I'll have to go to the chemist and get some cream for them I think.

They so suck
