Day 6: What a difference a day makes. Yesterday was so bad and I was so scared and mentally beat down. All I ate was my morning smoothie, then soup and saltines for lunch and dinner. I was worried the salad I had the night before aggravated things causing the bleeding.
I had 3 very small loose BMs this morning. All were about a 3-4 on the pain scale. No blood. So different from yesterday! I realized I didn't use any Vaseline pre-BM yesterday, either. Since my surgery last week, I've been applying it as soon as I wake up, followed by a couple ibuprofen. Yesterday I had to go as soon as I woke up (not normal).
Today I've had my smootie, soup for lunch, and planning on roasted sweet potatoes with coconut oil for dinner. Those are usually safe for me. I hope tomorrow is a good day, too.
