Night From HELL

I know I have never pushed out a baby, although I have 3 girls (all c-sections) but last night I dont think it could have been any worse.

I knew all day that I had that constipation feeling but when I got home I got that URGENT Constipation call. I called my husband at work and ask him to stop off at the drug store and pick up some milk of magnese (sp). I had taken 5 colaces with no effect. I did a deposatory (again speling ughhh) with no effect. I was miserable. So when hubby came in I did 4 table spoons of the M.O.M. Ok the bottle said 30 minutes to 6 hours, so now I am in a holding pattern. Well around midnight I woke my husband to go back to the drug store for a fleet. So last night at around 1am I am giving myself a fleet enema. :faint:

I think I am going on 2 1/2 hours sleep. I know without a doubt I am going to have to do Benefiber every day. I cant have many more nights like that. My recum bleed and I am sore this morning. Today is going to be a long day for me. I sat on the toilet praying and wondering if this was because of the band. I had a horrible night but I am not giving up. There are going to be many speed bumps in my journey to better health and they might slow me down but there not going to stop me.

I may post more later, I am soooo sleepy:notagree
