But if I could just STOP pooping lava, 

that would be Grreeat. My bum hurts. Now I am gonna eat a whole mess of tacos and $hit my brains out. Not the best idea I have ever had, but fuggit.

I had loose stools for 2 days and thought "maybe this is the start to something"...well it wasn't. Here I am a week later with no signs of labor. Hope it is different for you!

That was me yesterday- but the burrito for lunch from chipotle with extra hot sauce had something to do with it.

I pooped twice today.. Which is more than I have the entire 3rd trimester. I really hope it means something on the bright side at my checkup today the nurse said I hadnt gained any weight this week (first time in 39 weeks).. If only she knew it's cause I was on the toilet all morning!

I am on Iron pills for anemia, which they discovered from bloodwork at 36 weeks, It is a miracle that I can poop at all. I can only imagine what it may be like if I wasn't taking iron. With my first I had loose bowels and had him less then 24 hours later. But I have been having looseish bowels and losing MP for almost 3 days now, ever since my exam and cervical check Monday. I feel like puking after the tacos though.

@Azlebella‌ I, too, have been on the nasty iron supplements, but since 28 weeks. No good in the poop department, so it's been strange being able to go these past couple of days. I'm quite certain it's just a phase for me and won't last, ha.

We should just enjoy the 'Go' while we still can, and I will likely be wishing for Lava poops when it comes to the first PP poop. :<

I had this the night before I gave birth. If it helps you get through, know that I didn't poop on the table. I had nothing left to poop.
