How do you make them go away!!!!

I didn't have this with my first pregnancy.
They are uncomfortable and I so don't want to have any intimacy with my hubby because I'm embarassed.

I have a movement every day. I cannot say that they are strenuous...so I don't know why other than 'pregnancy'.


Help!

Ack. No bueno.
Drink lots of water, and Tucks pads in the fridge. Sorry.

Thanks....you're right though...I do need to up my water intake....one of the major things I have slacked on since getting pregnant.

Definitely hitting up Walmart tonight  :-)

You can get them from increased blood flow... you don't necessarily have to strain or be irregular. I agree with the previous poster- Keep Tucks pads in the fridge. Hopefully they will help!

I didn't have a problem with them when I was pregnant with my twins, but OMG the pain in my butt (sorry, bad pun) this time around is /was unbearable! 

The tucks pads did nothing and I was still  having regular BMs, drinking plenty of water, lotsa fiber... all that, but the pressure from the baby was giving me the worst hemorroids. I finally had my OB write a perscription for a medicated steroid cream and they were gone overnight.... totally worth it.

Didn't even think about asking the OB for actual meds...I just assumed everything was over the counter.
My doc is amazing about calling me in things when I need them. My next appt is on Tuesday, Hopefully he'll help me out.

Thanks!!!

Oh yuck, I'm sorry :-(
LOL....I guess if hubby expects to get any nookie then he'll just have to play nice and pretend to not even notice them.  He he he  :-)

Thanks!!!
