TMI - pooping more is this normal?

[Mamtobe2024]

Sorry this is abit TMI. I'm 35 weeks tomorrow and the past week or so I've noticed I'm pooing more than usual. It's not diarrhoea or loose stools - it is still normal I've just noticed I'm going more frequently and I've not changed my diet or anything to make me go more. I'm not unwell or don't have a bug or anything. I just go to the toilet more frequently than I have been.

Has anyone else experienced this or?

Yes it's very normal 😄 the baby is probably putting pressure on everything at 35 weeks, I've had 3 and multiple poos was standard for me in the last few weeks x

I nearly blocked my mother's toilet at 36 weeks with my 2nd. So. Much. Poo. Hope this helps 😂

Yes. Pressure, hormones.
