I mean, I am not exactly sure if I care how it happens, I just do not want you to hurt yourself in the process. Embarassment is ok, and even postable, but not hurting yourself. :):)

Just to clarify - a stool softener is different from a laxative. Stool softeners do exactly what they sound like. You probably had one (like colace or something) after you gave birth. My doctor prescribed it to me anyway. They are very gentle.
Laxatives on the other hand cause muscle contractions in your bowels to force everything out. I found that using them can be quite painful even when I am NOT recovering from abdominal surgery. So be careful. Your doctor would probably not want you taking a laxative OTC.
