Hemorrhoids and 29 weeks pregnant!?
Hemorrhoids and 29 weeks pregnant!?
I've been pretty lucky with having minimal symptoms so far, but within this past week I noticed that I have gotten hemorrhoids. I know what they are, that they are common with pregnancy, and how to treat them (ease the discomfort). My question is this … in a non-pregnant person, hemorrhoids typically last around 2 weeks then the swelling goes down causing them to be no more. Is this true in pregnant women too? Do I just deal with them for a couple weeks, then they'll go away? I've read conflicting medical articles saying that some stay around until after the baby is born while others are able to be shrunken using cream to make the birth easier. I don't know about dealing with annoying hemorrhoids for the next 11 weeks.
Any personal experiences some of you want to share …
