Was the only thing that kept me going both pregnancies.  With those had no issues and still eat the All Bran to this day.  The yummy honey and almond one. ]]>

My MW said to be careful of fruit because even though it was natural it was still alot of sugar and not to over do it. She also said to avoid bananas as they could lead to constapation. She advised if I was having fruit to eat the whole fruit so I got the fibre and not have juice.<br /><br />Alot of nutritionists give the same advise with fruit now. But I just use modiration myself and alot of variety.]]>

I take a tsp before bed when I need it and it really helps. Someone on here suggested it to me when my fissure was at it's worst, and honestly it was the best thing I ever tried. But yes, lot's of fibre, water, cut out white flour products, DON'T strain, rocking backwards and forwards, Squatting all help.<br />The joys of pregnancy..............!<br /> ]]>

The sacrifices they will never know, lol.<br /><br />I swear by 2 kiwifruit a day, great at mo cos they are in season.  I also bought a bottle of prune juice as this saved me from any probs after a c-section last time,(haven't needed it yet).  Had a glass a day in hospital, as you get really sensitive about any extra pushing after the birth.  And frankly who needs it!<br /><br />My other saver, although a pretty powerful natural laxtive is something I bought in a healthfood shop in oz, consisting of prunes, figs etc etc, sort of like a bar, but didn't need much and timed it right so was around my own bathroom at the time.  Worked well.  Oh and drink lots of water too.  Simple but does help.<br /><br />If you are having iron, make sure its in a natural form, ie Floradix, won't bung you up.<br /><br />Good luck, and thanks for the laugh! PS prune juice tastes better than it sounds.<img border="0" src="https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/smileys/smiley1.gif" border="0"> ]]>

A few months ago I started having homemade smoothies most days.  I put loads of stuff in, much of which I would never otherwise eat, or only occasionally eg; celery, banana, spinach, pineapple, other fruits, raw red cabbage, spirulina powder smoothed out with some barkers syrup and some good fruit juice.  Such a good way to get loadsa nutrients quickly.  And, I'm sure it must be good for the bowels.<br /><br /> ]]>

I was going to come in and say, dont sit there for ages and push push push as it will make it worse(I know from experience) so now I just get off the loo and try and do other things, eat some porridge drink heaps of water and relax! Or go for a brisk walk, do some exercise, as that helps get things moving.<br /><br />I hope you're feeling better soon!]]>

Always have a cold water bottle in the car./fridge/kitchen bench etc  drink hot waters as well if at work <br /><br />dont eat too much white flour products bungs you up<br /><br />hope my tips help<br /><br />good luck its such a horible feeling!]]>

So not fun!<br /><br />Get a huge variety of food with fibre in them: not just say kiwifruit, but everything you can: kiwifruit, spirilina drink, brown bread, bran, breakfast cereals with lots of bran and fibre, apples, prunes,...go hard on them and try to make sure you have something at each meal/snack that is high in fibre. <br /><br />Drinking HEAPS of water helps things um soften up and exercising helps it get moving too. Try to relax as well when the time comes (don't strain!) and it can also help to 'try' after eating as eating stimulates the bowel<br /><br />If it gets really bad, head to the doc before getting to the hemorrhoid stage, as eek that must hurt!<br /><br />The things we do to have children eh?! <img border="0" src="https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/smileys/smiley2.gif" border="0"> ]]>
