How long did you/would you wait to take a stool softener/laxative? I haven't had a BM since Friday or Saturday morning (can't remember which), and I am having some cramping from it. I am generally just very uncomfortable and grouchy! My RE suggested Colace, but DH picked up Peri-Colace since he didn't know there was a difference (Colace is just a softener, Peri-Colace has a laxative, too). I've never taken anything like this, and it really freaks me out. I'm also hesitant since Peri-Colace is a class C drug. But I'm also terrified of what it's going to be like when I finally do go...
(Sorry if that's TMI...handle it :P)
WWYD?
