diarrhea (sorry)

[wishes]

hey girls... erm, sorry no nice way to put this but i have had diarrhea since i got up this morning I havent eaten anything that could have been dodgy etc... and now im worried! Everything i read just talks about people being constipated and im really not.

(When i had my mc i remember the hospital asking if id had any diarrhea and now im worrying its a bad sign )

Anyone else had it??

 

[goddess25]

I dont think its anything to worry about.. I had lots of diarrhoea until about 12-13 weeks and then it turned into the dreaded constipation and i hear that about 22 weeks my midwife told me you can commonly flip between the 2 again. I am sure everything is ok.

Hope you feel better soonx I remember having very very loose stools with my first pregnancy x Its prob all them hormones

 

[Holly21]

People react to hormones differently and although most people get constipated (if they get any changes at all), some people may get looser. Hope it doesn't last long

i had dioreaha loads during the first and second early trimester. Its not to bad not as i was getting it when i had the bad sickness. But was told it was normal. I am ok now though,

constipation I think is more common, but diarrhea happens quite often in pregnancy too.

 

[faille]

Well I switched from being constipated to having diarrhea more or less overnight


But touch wood the diarrhea only lasted one night and I seem to be my old constipated self again..... ah well, at least it gave me a chance to get all that stocked up crap out (lmao, tmi sorry)
