      Gotta make sure you get enough fiber and water. Try some metamucil to get things moving short-term, more fruit to help you out long term.

      You can also try researching pelvic floor stretches and diaphragmatic breathing exercises, which should help relax your muscles.

      Finally, if you feel like it’s right there on the cusp, but you can’t seem to get it over the edge, try blowing your nose. That should contract your core muscles and give you that extra little push.

        Lol, thank you dookieman12 😔

        Metamucil helps but miralax helps more honestly. I’ve definitely been eating a higher fiber diet but I’m not sure if ive been getting enough insoluble fiber 😅
