From constipation to frequent bm -I am loosing another one?

[legalbunny]

I am a bit worried (understatement!) with my other pregnancies i was constipated then could go to the loo again a few days before I miscarried. I am now only 5/6 weeks along and have gone from severe constipation to overly regular bms. Is this ever normal for a healthy pregnancy? I have no bleeding yet.

I have s complete mix of bowel movements in pregnancy. Yes, more constipation than normal, but also plenty of loose movements! Try not to worry.

Thank you, I have my fingers crossed. It is earlier than in the other pregnancies, I guess I am to some extent waiting for bad news, which sounds terrible. I know stress is counterproductive to pregnancy, so i will try to calm down and keep my chin up. I have to wait and see what happens. I really appreciate your positive reply.

I had this worry a week ago. I had the usual constipation from 4-5 weeks. Then at 6 weeks had a good bit of diarrhoea and thought I was about to miscarry. Had a scan on Monday which showed otherwise. Still very early so not sure yet, but I think if you are not bleeding then you shouldn't worry about the fluctuation. It's normal to mental about symptoms though, I've had 2mcs too and I worry all day every day about the slightest thing going on in my body.

Really glad your scan went well- reassuring. I have a scan a week on Monday, as although I had one this week, it was just too early to show anything. I start at the high risk clinic on Wednesday- so am being looked after well by the Drs.
