HOW DOES A NEW MOM’S BODY COPE WITH NEW CHALANGES?
“The struggle you go through during pregnancy develops the strength you need after giving birth”.
The latest post on postpartum bleeding found its audience in two reading groups:
GROUP NO 1
Readers from the first group wrote that it is disgusting, unnecessary to describe, and exaggerated.
GROUP NO 2
The recipients from the second group experienced the same bleeding as I described in my example. They were also not prepared for it and were subjected to unnecessary stress.
That is why for today’s post the first group received a note from me: “Read at your own risk”.
We will deal with another unpleasant topic – the problem of poop during pregnancy, in the postpartum period, and of course we will refer to the first poops in a newborn.
DEALING WITH POOP – DURING PREGNANCY
During pregnancy, there are several problematic issues. Some women get varicose veins, hemorrhoids, diabetes, urinary tract infections, vaginal infections etc, etc but also very often anemia.
I only had a bladder infection, vaginal infection, and anemia. And to be honest, everything was manageable, but with anemia, they prescribe you iron and that’s where the fun ends and the poop issue begins.
And you know that you eat well and drink liters of water, but after 3-4 days your poop turns darker, black, and finally becomes coal cubes. Both in terms of appearance and consistency.
Think about it: at night you run to the toilet up to 5-6 times because the baby is pressing on your bladder, and during the day you also run 5-6 times because the poop is pushing on you and you try to get rid of it, but nothing helps.
Of course, the first thing is the pharmacy and a plea for help. They gave me something that I had to dissolve and drink a glass a day – disgusting and ineffective. Then, believe me, I discovered a natural way to alleviate the problem – plum juice.
My boss, a mom of two, recommended it to me. I remember about diet and water, but I wouldn’t squeeze a chestnut without that. Indeed, with regular drinking of a glass of plum juice, all the problems with constipation disappeared. And what a simple solution it was. Unfortunately, the color remained the same, but such are the charms of pregnancy and that is how memories are created, which do not always have to be wonderful.

DEALING WITH POOP – POSTPARTUM PERIOD
Here, all the faint of heart can stop reading.
I couldn’t understand how anyone could be afraid to poop after giving birth.
I had reason to doubt it because during labor I automatically poop due to the high pressure.
So why does your rectum go into blocking mode after you push out the baby and get automatic relief?
I don’t have an answer to this question, but most women experience this after giving birth.
Coffee, which usually makes me feel pressure to poop, doesn’t help. My friend’s cocktails, which she always drank for this occasion, didn’t help. So the problem does exist in our brains. Mine said: I don’t need poop now, I don’t want it.
Besides, I was most afraid of stitching and I was supposed to avoid straining. The bleeding also increases with pushing, pressing, and pressure, so I was most afraid of this type of consequence.
I didn’t develop a method to induce the chestnut outside, like in the first case. In my case, I got rid of the poop one day, and my full attention was taken up with caring for my newborn baby.
DEALING WITH POOP – NEWBORN TIME
After your experiences with poop during pregnancy and labor and postpartum, do you think that nothing will surprise you anymore? Oh, how wrong I was.
You have a baby at home. A wonderful, fragrant, precious baby.

It lies on your body and sucks your milk. This wonderful feeling between mother and child. The so-called connection occurs, during which my maternal instinct was born. After feeding, the magic will scatter, like a baby’s poop in a diaper.
I don’t remember the poop colors in order anymore, but they’re almost in the colors of the rainbow. They have to be in all the colors. No, I’m kidding, maybe not all of them, because some colors mean health and others complications, but they’ll still surprise you.
Who of you watches the movie: “Change-up” (2011 ) and remembers that scene when Daddy changes the twins’ diapers and gets hit in the face with diarrhea? That shit is real. My husband experienced this with our firstborn son. He was hit in the face and a piece of the wall behind him was also colored.
On this true and humorous note, we will end the topic of poop.
Remember my dear ladies, no shit will defeat us.
