Pooping lots before labour?

Sorry about the vulgar post, but I have to ask! I'm due tomorrow, and today I've been on and off the toilet, not with the runs but having movements more than usual. Also before having the movements, I have a slight bit of stomach cramping until I go. Today I feel absolutely brilliant, whereas the past few days or weeks I have felt awful, full of a cold etc. I wish I could run around but with SPD it's restricting me 😂 Did anybody else get this before they went into labour? I'm also hoping as if my boy isn't born tomorrow I'll be induced on Thursday!

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

Yes I did the day before my DS was born but not my DD

I can't really help as I was pooing all the way through the pushing stage good to get it cleared out beforehand imo! Keep an eye on the cramping as that may be the start of contractions, good luck!

Yep

I had a massive clear out before dd was born

Didn’t with ds...that was in the labour room unfortunately

Had this before both my babies. Thought it would stop any release during labour. Apparently not according to my husband
