Bowel spasms early pregnancy

[BEO]

So I am 6+6 today and since I found out I was pregnant I have noticed that my belly cramps quite bad when I need to go for a number 2 then once I have been it feels fine.

This is my first pregnancy so I have no idea if this is normal! I have no other pain/bleeding just a bad belly when I need a poo! It used to happen occasionally before I was pregnant but I’ve noticed it nearly daily whilst being pregnant so just wanted some assurance that this is normal?

Hey,

I have been suffering a lot I'm 8+6. Iv been doing lots of reading about it and due to the rise in hormones it slows down the intestines and how digestion works causing gas, constipation and discomfort. So after all the research iv been doing i think it's pretty normal to be suffering with bowels unfortunately. Not pleasant or comfortable and I'm with you on that but the plus side is it's a side affect of the pregnancy 😊
