Reply to "What did labor feel like with J Pouch!!"

My gut was right- I was in labor and had baby boy that same day at 4:00 pm. I never experienced what I thought contractions should or would feel like- abdominal pain. Only intense low back pain with nausea and severe loose stools. My GI doc said that isn't totally uncommon for women with a J Pouch.

Since c-section I have had some GI complications- persistent watery stools with some incontinence and vomiting, which ultimately required a scope and NG tube. Not what I had hoped for, but baby is perfect and healthy and I would much rather me than him. Working I getting healthy enough to breast feed, but NPO for the time being and not able to produce anything because of it.
