Hi, 6 weeks post my reversal of colectomy. Now with pouch, had some issues of blockages due to strictures.. should be fixed
However, this morning I woke up bloated and not being able to pass stools. I am in no pain or nauseous. I am on liquids only for now in case of a partial blockage.
Hoping this will pass and I will pass stools, as I do not want to eat and end up blocked and in pain. Any ideas how i can pass stools?

Yes, I do! Happened to me a few weeks ago. I drank about 6 oz of prune juice real quick. Had movement in a few minutes. Good luck!
Yoga poses help me. Downward dog, forward fold, and happy baby poses helped get things moving. Also agree with the prune juice suggestion
heating pad
I also do this move where I stand on my tip toes and quickly land flat on my feet, kinda hard. Do it a few times over and over. A quick way to have gravity work on the GI system. When things aren’t working well, I try lots of things😊
