Should I call midwife?

Sorry if this is TMI but I'm 24 weeks and I've had loose stalls and needed to go three or four times a day for the last four days. I've felt the baby kick and move in this time generally at 4 in the morning and about 7pm at night. I just don't know if I should get checked out to make sure the baby isn't feeling unwell at all? Or if it's just pregnancy and feeling a bit rough.

You should contact your mid wife if you have any concerns regarding your pregnancy and the health and well being if your baby.

The fact it's been going on more than 24 hours I'd give your midwife or doctor a ring.
If you're super worried then call your maternity assessment unit and talk them through what's been happening.
The fact baby is moving about is always a good sign but best to get yourself looked at. More for peace of mind if anything else.

An the loose stalls be linked with your diet maybe? Or maybe you go through a period of stress which is causing them?
I don't have much advice, but i wanted to say that I hope all goes well for you.

I had dhiarreah for a week and considered calling my midwife, but then it passed and all was ok. Think pregnancy can have a negative impact on digestive system sometimes!

Ring your GP. It doesn’t sound obstetric.

Thanks for all your replies, I ended up going in as I hadn't felt the baby for nearly 12 hours which is unusual! Baby was all fine and I was just a bit dehydrated which was why movements had decreased. Unfortunately where I got myself worked up my blood pressure went up so I had to stay longer than expected and see a GP but I must stay even amid covid everyone was so lovely and make me feel so comfortable and assured!
