Update

Body: 

For all those who provide advice thank you I was finally able to go yesterday. This morning the urge hit me and without any assistance it took care of itself with no straining. I definitely believe I was concentrating too much on the BM.

I was also able to last an entire day in a classroom setting while maintaining posture almost throughout the day. This definitely gave me some confidence that I can function and will function better each day. Baby steps.

Thanks all

Sometimes I'll have that "stuck" feeling, and I'll either just try to push it out as gently as possible while lifting off the seat; or just go to bed and usually by the next day that feeling is gone and I go normally.

That has got to be the worst feeling though. That's why I'll just try to make myself go as much as possible, and I'll use the flushable wipes to make sure I get it all.

Ahhhhhhhhhhh!
