I had my first real bm today (bowel movement aka poop) since my hysterectomy and omg, it was awful. It was like pooping out tar that smelled like a hog pen. I wanted to run out of there and if I wasn't the one doing the business I would have been out of there upon first smell. It is also a good thing that I asked the hospital for gloves before I left. When you ain't had a good poop, those gloves come in handy, if you know what I mean. Yeah, you are saying ewww, but if you are ever in that position where you absolutely need to go and it is to big to come out, then you will do what you got to do.
Especially if you aren't able to have an enema and you can't strain to get anything out so gloves and a little outer layer stretch really helps. Hey, better than the constant miralax, stool softners, and other things, that after awhile just makes you bloated and makes you want to go even more and longer. Yes, I had to go there.
Hopefully it will get loads better, but only time will tell. I will post later on tonight. I am gonna go and lay down. Yes, that took a lot out of me, literally in more ways than one.
