I am 9 days postpartum and have had such an easy recovery this time except for what feels like constipation pains starting on Sunday. I've had pretty regular bm's. Sunday I went fine that morning and then in the afternoon had bad cramping. Same Monday even though I took some milk of magnesia and pretty much cleared out my system. Yesterday no pain at all and I didn't have a bm, then today after a normal BM extreme pain (8-9). I took some midol which helped but even now 4 hours later just passing gas hurts, although the constant pain is gone. I called the Dr. And they told me it's normal pp. Anyone else have experience with this?
