Hoping someone’s had the same thing ! ( stomach issues)

Hi all,

I am super anxious due to history of loss and not the easiest of times this pregnancy .

I am now 23 weeks and have had on and off diarrhoea for the last week and a bit. A weird one as im not going constantly ( as you’d expect with a pre pregnancy stomach bug) and it’s only when I’d usually go toilet so twice a day only. When I do go it’s softer stool and sometimes diarrhoea to finish it off ( sorry I don’t want to be graphic) Dr said if it carried on past Friday to do a stool sample, but it looked like it was sorted so I didn’t bother and I’m going away on Sunday.

Other than this I feel fine I’m just hoping somebody else had a dodgy stomach in pregnancy. My first trimester was basically non stop constipation.

Mine was like this occasionally on my first, and almost all the time now with my 2nd. This one is a different sex, so could be a bit different. I’m far more tired and ragey as well.

So normal for me, and I know my sister has problems on and off too, same sex baby.

I wouldn’t worry, anything goes in pregnancy really.

I had many losses before this one, so I know the anxiety is hard
