Am I the only one with bad poops?

Maybe TMI, whatever.

EVERY morning since my BFP I've had nasty, smelly poops and horrible gas. Rest of the day? Totally fine.

I pegged it as a coincidence until this morning that made 4 times. I usually suffer from constipation due to stomach problems so I'm thinking maybe some hormones in there are speeding up my digestive system?

I just want to know I'm not the only one blowing up the bathroom.

I can tell this will be a very glamorous time in my life

Nope not alone and more than likely it will continue for a happy 9 months

I'll poop every day 5 times a day for 9 months if I have to haha I'm just wondering if I'm crazy... I was thinking there's no way at 4 weeks I can already have such a persistent symptom but I guess it's possible

I have definitely had gas and maybe a poop or two like you described.  My most persistent symptom so far seems to be crying at the drop of a hat!  The Notebook came on tv this morning and I either cried or almost cried for each scene.  I finally had to find something else to watch. 

I had one random almost crying event on our road trip the other day. I was able to compose myself but man that was weird lol

I wish I could poop right now. I did not have this issue with DS at all. I guess that is why they say every pregnancy is different, but besides that my symptoms are the same.

I can't decide if my normally bad gas is *worse* due to pregnancy. Status quo in my house is pretty bad....

Also, accidentally watched a video on facebook of WWII and Korean vets being welcomed at the airport. Hot. Mess.

Yes! It's either all or nothing In the bathroom right now. Although I'll take it because one of the few symptoms I had in my previous pregnancies was extreme constipation.

Oh and crying all the time. At work for no apparent reason. When I woke up this morning for no known reason. I sent DH this yesterday

Oh but I should add I'll take whatever is thrown my way if it means a happy healthy child at the end of this.

This...I cried because we were out of bananas...WTAF? Who does that?

@janda426‌ I've had a few bad poops but seems I'm the other way..constipation city! Don't know which is worse! :-)

@janda426 - Yup.  Bad morning poops.  I asked my OB and he said that was normal.

I've had a few..  And a lot of pressure and gas/bloat...  and the ever present queasyness... 

My weirdo symptom of the day.... I woke up in the middle of the night and smelled onions... wtf?
