Asked By:Danyellgg in Jacksonville, FL

I had a TT Jan. 12, 2015 with muscle repair. Around week 2 I had a bad bad bad bowel movement that an enima couldn't even help. Eventually I finally pushed enough to go and heard popping above and below my belly button and felt some light pain. Now I am 5 weeks out and am starting to have some strange pressure around my belly button. It sort of feels like I'm being pushed from the inside out and to touch it feels weird and a little painful. I'm a few days late for my period and I am swollen.
