I'm 30 weeks pregnant and the piles are beyond me. The doctor is talking about cutting them out after pregnancy.

Anyway, one of the symptoms I've been getting on and off is that I leak a bit of stool / mucus.

I was in the bath today, soothing my feet and body after a busy day... and as the water was running out I noticed a small bit of poo in the water.

I'm mortified and feel sick.

I'm aware baby is closed but worried that it'll cause an infection that can affect baby?

Obvs it was diluted with loads of bubbles, soap and water.. so who knows,

My health anxiety is making me think the worst!

This won’t have harmed baby. Even if any poo did somehow manage to travel up your vagina which I very much doubt, your cervix is closed and baby is very well protected.

However you maybe risk a UTI - maybe up fluids to flush anything out and be very careful.
