    Completely normal. It's the hormones. Ever since my BFP I have had very loose and foul bowel movements. Normally I have a hard time going. Only for the past few days does it seem that it's getting harder to go but come last night I had diarrhea.

    OK, thanks was really worried, as nobody had mentioned this part. I am trying to drink plenty of water to help though. I don't have anything to worry about at the moment then?!

    Poor you, I hope you feel better. How far are you?

    I've had the same thing. I'm going like five times a day. one thing you can do is make sure yor pnv doesnt have a stool softener or laxative in it. i realized mine had polyethylene glycol in it and looked for a different brand without.

    I've had some diarrhea too, especially on days when I don't eat well (lots of chips, breads, not a lot of fruits, veggies, or "real food"). Also when I'm stressed, I get very loose movements (for example, the week after I found out I was pregnant I was so excited but also freaked, and my bowels were very loose and frequent).

    As long as you keep up your fluids you should be ok. Some fruits like bananas can be "binders" (make bowels thicken up).

    Feel well!
