Bowel movements or lack there of ??

I posted this on the main board too. just in case ? Hi all, i am sorry to ask this , but It has been about 4 or 5 days since I have had one. Liquid or otherwise. I am on the puree stage and have fish and tuna , and chili .. any suggestions. I dont have any pain or symptoms of constipation yet, but i am afraid I will soon.

I have noticed certain changes in that area since my surgery. It doesn't surprise me. Not much is going in. So, not much is coming out. I think it is a weekly event now. I know that some people like to take a laxative. But, I don't want to become dependent on them. So, I don't take them. Sorry, no help.

boy... okay... laying it out there lol my dr. prescribed me colace? and one pill cut me loose, and i have had to take nothing since. i would definately make a call to your dr and see if he can hook you up with a rx. if not.... theres always ex lax or correctol or something... i dunno, but hope it come out all right lol haha get it lol hehehe ok, im gone...

While we're on the subject......does anybody elses' BM look like a childs would? You know, small in size and not very much? Plus mine is STILL a funky color. I even switched my vitamins thinking it was the liquid vitamin that was making my poo orange in color......and it's still orange! Makes me feel like a pumpkin or something! LOl Sorry if it's TMI And yes, I'm still not regular, but I'm more regular then I was the first 4 weeks or so. And I feel very lucky~no constipation and no scoots. At a happy medium....lol. ~Tanja

I had my first on day 6 after surgery. Day 7 too. but now I haven't had any in 2 days. I'm not worried though. Heck, we're not exactly eating a lot at this stage to produce much, ya know?

- I just used milk of mag and i was fine! anytime that happens
