Our trip is scheduled for 6 months. I’ve been planning on just bringing a ton of diltiazem and hoping for the best, but recently considered the option of delaying my visit. Part of it is because of the fissure issue and a big part of it is wanting my son to be a little older and stronger before we bring him to Jakarta. (He’s only a month old right now and hasn’t had any vaccines yet.)
Like you, I got my first fissure while breastfeeding. This time I got a fissure in different places at 1 month, 3 months, and 7 months pregnant. I’d really love it if my fissure issues resolve after I finish breastfeeding, but I definitely still have some discomfort and occasional bleeding and tightness down there. And this pregnancy gave me a pretty bad case of hemorrhoids too that just won’t go away. My CRS said they’re there for good unless I get surgery :-( So sad! I have a sentinel tag from the most recent fissure too. My poor butt will never look the same! Ah the trophies of motherhood lol
