2nd Trimester

Did this happen to you after constipation? (poop details inside)

So....I was backed up for a month. Everything that came out looked like rabbit pellets up until 4 days ago. All of the sudden I made 3 trips to the bathroom within 10 minutes and unloaded more poop than I knew could fit in me. However, ever since then I haven't had solid poop. Its been more diarrheaish but without stomach cramps. I haven't felt sick or anything so I don't think it's a stomach issue, but I think it's strange that after nothing would come out for so long that I now have frequent diarrhea.

  • Hmmm, I know that I can be backed up for close to a week, go, then next day be looser...it is usually constipation but does go back and forth between the 2.

    Just make sure to stay very hydrated!

  • This happens to me, but on a smaller scale. I'll be constipated for a day or 2 and then BAM. and then go back to being constipated. I think as long as it's not like, constant, and you take care to stay hydrated, it'll be ok.

  • It's cause that liquidy stuff was what was pushing to get the rest out. It's a natural way of getting things moving. The body is trying to balance its self.

  • I have this happening to me as well. I was constipated for a month and tried EVERYTHING..change in diet, increase in fiber, colace and finally gave into milk of magnesia this past Sunday. I went and went and went all day Sunday and since then as soon as I eat something it comes out! I am going to have to admit, it is so much better than being constipated!
  • Yes!  I still will go back and forth.  One week I'm stopped up and then the next is loose all week.  Just keep drinking lots of water.  My Dr said it's just part of your body adjusting to everything, and to stay hydrated.   Hang in there.
  • Thanks for all the feedback. I'm sucking down all the water I can and am hoping my body finds some kind of balance soon.
  • "Rabbit pellet" like bowel movements means you're not drinking enough water.

    That's what I thought at first, but I've been drinking at least 14 8oz glasses of water a day.
