Piles🫣

Help😩 I’m 35+6 and I’ve just developed two lumps down there. They’re so unbelievably painful. I’ve got germoloids cream and I’m using wipes instead of tissue when wiping. Also having baths. I’m just scared they won’t go by the time I give birth. How long do they usually take to go? They’re about the size of kidney beans, not sure if that’s big or small but it’s such a horrible pain.

I’ve had this a few times throughout my pregnancy. Whilst it takes a while for mine to go, the pain goes after about a week 🤞🏻🤞🏻

I’m using Anusol 3-4 times a day and they shrink very quickly! Also try putting a sanitary towel in the fridge and wearing it over night to soothe. I’m bathing with the myexpertmidwife soak and it’s really gentle.

I’m so sorry to hear that you’re dealing with this. I had piles a few years ago and I can remember the pain. I’d recommend getting a donut pillow to sit on. I used to take mine everywhere. I also used to use Anusol cream after every toilet visit. Be mindful of the laxatives they give you and don’t take them longer than 2 weeks. Good luck!
