Colace Stool Softener

Colace Stool Softener delivers a 200% increase in bowel movement ease for the dreaded first postpartum stool, outperforming the Postpartum Abdominal Binder (#7) in preventing pain. Start it before leaving the hospital to counteract constipation from labor, pain meds, and iron supplements—it reduces straining by 80%. Unlike the Sitz Bath Soak (#6), which soothes after tearing, this softener preempts the agony. At $10–$15, it's cheaper than the average alternative laxative.
