When I first “cracked the code” on stabilizing and reversing prolapse, and wrote and published Saving the Whole Woman, I set up this forum. While I had finally gotten my own severe uterine prolapse under control with the knowledge I had gained, I didn’t actually know if I could teach other women to do for themselves what I had done for my condition.
So I just started teaching women on this forum. Within weeks, the women started writing back, “It’s working! I can feel the difference!”
From that moment on, the forum became the hub of the Whole Woman Community. Unfortunately, spammers also discovered the forum, along with the thousands of women we had been helping. The level of spamming became so intolerable and time-consuming, we regretfully took the forum down.
Technology never sleeps, however, and we have better tools today for controlling spam than we did just a few years ago. So I am very excited and pleased to bring the forum back online.

liquid food
welcome back!!!
i would think that if you drink tons and eat lots of liquified food / soup, you won't get constipated as bulk isn't going in.
what about stewed fruit? stew plums and then blend them?
can you get vegie juices? not much fibre, but super fab for you...
also, i used to make a raw soup in the blender that was something like raw sweet potato, greens, avocado, and an apple all in the blender with some liquid
it was really yummy-and full of fibre
good luckw ith your surgery and i'm sure you'll recover faster than you think!

Thanks, Kiki
The raw soup sounds wonderful. I will eat that every day!
I was just really worried that if the blender breaks down the fibre particles then it does not work any more - but your post suggests that that is not the case. Great!
Thanks again!

i had my wisdom teeth removed less than 2 years ago.....
if your recovery is anything like mine make sure you have someone who can help....or if possible make these mixtures ahead of time otherwise you might settle for whatever you can get your hands on quickly and then cause other issues.
If your teeth are already coming down you probaly wont have as hard of a time recovering as i did but better to be safe than sorry .....dont underestimate the surgery ....youwill need lots of rest and someone to help with the kids....my surgeon told me i could take care of my son fine within a week...that was not the case it took me atleast 3 weeks before i could manage without help just because i was in so much pain(dry socket). I had to take muscle relaxers so i could go to sleep and they made be groggy and out of it all day...everyone i know said it was no big deal you would be fine in a couple days but my teeth were way up in my sinus cavity so that was the difference im guessing...most people dont have any trouble though...lucky them i just wish someone would have warned me that its not always a walk in the park!

pain meds cause constipation
well I hope this is better late than never.....as soon as you can get off the meds do it- reduce your dosage by the second day and take motrin instead- you will probably need the stronger stuff to sleep at night- but the light stuff can get you through the day. You can let your Dr. know that you are having constipation from them and you can be prescribed a different type of pain killer that would be less likely to cause constipation.
I remember when I had mine out I just ate Popsicles all day the first two days- that seemed to help me- and I just slept all day the first two days- by the third day I was off the meds totally- and by the end of the week I was able to get around fine-
take care of yourself.
