No, I haven't had a bm yet, but I feel like I'd feel so much better if I could. I have some MOM that I may take later.

Yay you're all on the mend! Danielle, Water is critical. If you get enough in, you will have a BM. Dehydration plus pain pills can cause serious Constipation and even impaction (been there...you do not want to go there!). You need nutrients. Get used to needing to force yourself to eat When your swelling goes down and you get a good fill that's kind of how it is most of the time. You hear the growling, but you don't *feel* it and eating is sometimes optional. Please. please please drink water and get some nutrients in, it's critical for your healing right now!
