Dumb a$$ question for you!

Can 'morning sickness' affect your lower track too?  I know it is only hormones - I never had it with my first.  Just wondering!

It is the hormones.  I have it too.  It sucks.  Weird because pregnancy usually constipates you...but it must be later on in weeks.  I remember with my first I had to eat activia yogurt everyday to stay regular.  Now I am having looser stools...it also is probably related to things I am eating but who knows.

Absolutely. I ate lots of yogurt with my first since it helped my digestive tract and it was easy to get back up when I was sick.

Not sure how far along you are, but I had loose bowels and the "i need to go NOW" feeling from week 4 to about 7.. now I'm off and on constipated and normal. So much fun

Please understand that I say this with kindness and not snark. I strongly recommend that you not repeatedly post the same question on multiple boards. Most posters here lurk or post on multiple boards and will see it. It's considered poor board etiquette. If you must - at least label your posts as reposts. 

Also, as a TTPG grad - PLEASE consider thoughtfully what you post on that board. If you ask "what's it like to be pregnant?" questions on that board it will not be received well. Most of the women on that board have never been pregnant but REALLY, REALLY want to be KU. Some have only had miscarriages or chemical pregnancies. It's offensive and a bit of salt in the wound if you ask them questions that they won't be able to answer.  Imagine what it would be like to walk into a room of people that were applying for welfare benefits and started asking questions about how to hide your wealth in tax shelters. You'd likely get smacked. I'm not sure if it's a good analogy but it's all I got this late at night (I'm overseas).

I appreciate the advice - as a rule - I do not take to heart the 'snark'.  Most people are here with good intentions, but there still too many that love to be a bully.  This is not my first rodeo - I am a mother of a 2 1/2 yo but did not experience ms with her.  As you prob know, each pregnancy is different, thus the question.  It was suggested that I post here - I am really not worried about posting on multiple boards - as with life, you can chose not to read the post.

 

I hope I do not sound mean but I read so many posts where the poster get a lashing for asking a question.  

In my opinion, everyone should be less worried with etiquette and more concerned with HELPING each other - after all, isn't that the point of these boards?

 

Thanks again for your feedback - I really do appreciate it and will try to be more aware next time I post.

Also, and importantly - I am do not know if I am pregnant again which is why I asked on the TTC board.....
