M afraid to push but it's my first poop in a week!

Can I hurt sleeve?

No poop comes from your intestines not your stomach but you might want to try some laxatives so you dont have to strain soo hard.

No need to panic. Like the person ahead of me stated, poop comes from your intestines not stomach. But, since it's been a week, you don't want to strain yourself.

For immediate help, you can try Milk Of Magnesia, or add a capful of Miralax in any drink. It dissolves & you can't taste or see it. You can use that on a daily basis or every other day & it won't hurt your system at all. Also, you can try using flax seed in your yogurt or Protein drink every day as well.

Good luck!

It won't hurt your sleeve but if you push to hard you can get hemroids. I suggest taking a stool softener daily. Also, are you drinking plenty of water? At least 8 cups of water a day.
