So I did it. Step 3 was Tuesday and just got home today. Definitely feels odd to use my natural hardware after 9 months. Especially since it's not quite the same (very runny, acidic feeling stools now), but I'm glad to put all this business behind me. I have a bidet (thanks Liz!) and barrier cream. Any other advice for me? Thanks!

I second the Calmoseptine! Also, I know this wont work for everyone but what I did was this: I didn't take any Imodium or such at all after I got home from the hospital. (actually my surgeon said to hold off on that for 2 weeks after takedown). So I never took anything. I wanted to let my body try to adjust on it's own so I didn't have to depend on anything to slow my bowels. And I adjusted pretty quickly. Good luck!
