Hemorrhoids at 5 months

Ay, super common yan sa pregnancy, especially kapag constipated ka! A few of us mums got it din around that time kaya hindi ka nag-iisa, the pressure from the baby plus the hormones really do a number on your digestion. Best thing na nakatulong sa amin is drinking lots of water, eating more fiber (alam mo, fruits at vegetables), and taking stool softeners na safe sa pregnancy; one of my friends swears by the prenatal vitamins with fiber na prescribed ng OB niya. But honestly, I'd mention it to your doctor on your next visit para ma-rule out kung may ibang concern, and they can recommend what's safest para sa inyo both!
