Diarrhoea and stomach cramps

[lozbeth]

Hi ladies, I'm 21 weeks pregnant and I'm suffering from diarrhoea like poo for the past couple of days and again this morning but today I've got stomach cramps with it. Is this normal or is it worth me ringing doctors over it? I don't want to bother them if there no need

Poor you. It could be the weather affecting you. I would ring midwife and ask her opinion initially.

I would ask the midwife. For me, the pregnancy hormones caused this in my pregnancies. Sounds like trapped wind could be causing stomach pain, but see what your midwife says.
Hope you feel better soon

I was exactly the same last week!
Arrowroot biscuits helped a lot!

Thanks ladies trying my best to get through to doctor or midwife but it's becoming a hassle as I can't get through to them 😡

Can you ring your local maternity unit? There will be a midwife you can speak to there? Or there should be a number for your local midwives on your notes.

I'm waiting on a call back from the doctors now there no midwife there today but hopefully the doctor will be able to help

The doctor booked me in for an appointment to see me so hopefully it all be nothing

Didn't need doctors by the time it came round cramps stopped and so did diarrhoea back to normal today so perfect
