Hemorrhoid piles during pregnancy Posted: 03-14-08 13:13pm
Hi i'm back using ehealth as i'm nearly 9
months pregnant with my second baby only a
year after my first daughter Raven was
born..I have two swollen piles coming out
of my bottom and they are very painfull
and make me bleed sometimes when going to
the toilet.My problem is this....not only
am i absolutly terrified to give birth
this time around (family say thats because
i now know what to expect),as i had a
terrible Episiotomy which burst open and
had to be re-stitched and then got
infected,i was in agony for weeks...but
I'm also scared to death of while I'm
pushing out baby number two in about
2weeks time I'm obviously going to make
the piles worse with all the strain of
pushing..Bassically i'm scared to have a
bunch of grapes hanging out of my
backside. The doctors and midwifes don't
seem bothered much to try and help me and
ive tried all the creams and pessaries
under the sun...salt baths...ice
packs..ect. I'm so unhappy i cry all the
time and i really am down and depressed.I
dont know what to do.Please any advice
(without people being sarcastic) would be
greatly apreciated.Thankyou,JadeXX

I dont have nearly as bad as you make is
sound but my doctor told me that i could
always use the creams for hemmroids or get
portable baby wipes that are flushable and
use them instead of toilet paper and it
really does help a lot.
