24 weeks, urgency to poop?! :(

Does this sound familiar to anyone?

I'm 24w3d today and for the past couple of days I've been feeling this urgency to poop, it only lasts a couple of minutes and by the time I make it to the toilet it's gone.

Today it's been quite frequent and I've had about 4-5 bowel movements already. It's not diarrhea. I just feel like going a lot. I've also peed for England today (which I know is normal). But not sure what to make of the urge to go no 2?!
I've just googled it and I'm now quite worried as apparently it's normal in the early stages of labour?! Shock

Anyone?

I'm 24wks on Saturday & I seem to constantly go to the toilet, I checked with my midwife because we were like WHAT?!?! But she said some people suffer with constipation others can be the opposite, not to worry its all fine & should be grateful (almost) that I'm not constipated.

But if you're worried, see your midwife thats what she's there for. Mine is lovely & can ask any silly question I like, which at the moment seems to be like every question.
