A member asked:

What is the impact of natural birth on your colon and bowl movements post birth?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Unclear question: Childbirth, "natural" or not can affect body functions. You should be discussing this with your obstetrician. It is imperative that for the sake of your and your baby's health you be under the care of a doctor. Wish you good health and a healthy baby!
