Last few weeks of pregnacy: opposite of constipation

[photographerlady]

Hi, there's no charming way to ask this.. Anyone have/had diarrhea in the last few weeks of pregnancy? Sound normal to you? Been about a week in a half now (I'm 37 weeks) and seem to have mild d three-four times a day. I am eating well, drinking lots of fluids... No curries or takeaways really no change to my diet and no tummy pains. Is this just another lovely symptom of late pregnancy?

Yes I go between the two. 40 weeks on Wednesday.

Hi there yes unfortunately this is just one of those things I had DS 10 weeks ago and had this at about 34weeks until 37 weeks then after that I had severe constipation and I prayed to go back to the other way. If your eating normal and feel good then I wouldn't worry just drink lots and lots of water to make up for what your loosing! Not long for you to wait now! Good luck!

I had this in the week immediately prior to having DS. Brace yourself for more than a poo

lol don't say that Ragusa I am not ready yet :P

Completely with you - had it checked with GP to check no infection but all was fine. I think its just because there isn't enough room down there anymore for the bowel

I think its just one of those things

Me too, 38 weeks and exactly the same.

Is far, far too glamorous, this being pregnant malarkey.
