When I had my first child I had him within half an hour of getting to
hospital. Nobody told me to hold back on the pushing. It worked a treat!

Your point being?

I pushed as I felt like it and DD was born within 15 minutes of arriving at
the hospital. I had looked at the clock.

With #1 I pushed when the nurse told me to because I didn't know any better.
I did not feel an urge to push. 3hrs and 45min later he was finally born.
I couldn't sit down for two weeks and was miserable much longer. That might
be the point

I waited until the others were nearly crowning. That is most definitely the
way to go!

Truth be told, I'm already having a hard time sitting down (ok, or
laying down, or standing up.) OUCH. Any secret recipes you'd like to
share? Preferrably ones that don't involve 13 naked virgins dancing
around me at midnight on a moonless night ;-)
I have a cream. It's not really doing much. I don't want surgery now and
end up having to do it all over again in about 14 weeks.

But I don't see how waiting to push is better than pushing when nature
tells us to.

With #1 I was pushing from when I was told to for about 2 hours, and was in
a lot of pain afterwards-and stitches. With #2 I pushed for more like 15
minutes, from when I was told to, and could have happily played tennis
within a couple of hours later. It's called a second birth.

Hemorrhoids? Witch hazel on cotton balls works for me, as does a regular
stool softener (I use colace & benefiber) to avoid the straining which
causes them in the 1st place. I also got a prescription cream from the
doc called Analpram HC that really helped a lot. When I'm in bad shape I
drink coffee, Dunkin' Donuts is magic!

Sorry to hear that, hope you get some relief soon.

I'm not even constipated, that's the thing. It started last tuesday
after a long "shopping trip" (clothes and books). I think it was the
long periods of standing around and walking.
I'm better today. I got a cream from a doc which... kind of helps, I
think (it's really hard to tell because it does seem to need a few hours
to start working). I also got some milky liquid from my midwife which,
applied to cotton balls/cotton squares cools the area.
Honestly, I've never been in so much pain from Hemorrhoids. Saturday I
wanted to please be in labour instead because it would be a) less
painfull and b) over at some point.

Thanks for the tips, I'll try to get some witch hazel and see if that helps.

Poor you. I have IBS so hemmies are a constant feature in my life
whether I'm treating or avoiding them. Put an ice pack on there if
they're that bad and take Tylenol or something else safe. It's a
horrible pain. Pregnancy = constipation for me so I was projecting I
guess :c)
