Diarrhea in 3rd trimester

JGirl2005

I've had diarrhea twice  - once yesterday and once today.

Just called the nurse line and they said it wasn't a sign of labor-that I probably had a stomach bug. 

Anyone else experience this and not go into labor?  With my history, I want to catch any warning signs that labor could be coming.  LucyP, I know you had this several times.

Yup. Pretty much everyday since 30 weeks or so. I talked to my daughter about this at my appointment on Thursday. She said it is normally and that a lot of women in the 3rd trimester experience this because the baby squishes the plumbing.  Hope that helps!

I just got over two days of intense diarrhea too - ugh!  I couldn't keep anything in (sorry for TMI), but the nurse I spoke w/ wasn't concerned either.  She asked that I call in on Monday if it continuted any longer, and in the meantime stick to the BRAT diet (bananas, rice, applesauce, toast).

Hope you feel better soon!

I've had this on and off for the last few weeks.  No stomach problems otherwise, and I feel fine so I know it isn't a bug.  I'm just chalking it up to a pregnancy thing.

LOL!!  Called out for my dia-rear!  I did have it a few times (I don't know if I'd say SEVERAL.. ) - I think every time it was either rich food - or eating too much at once and overloading my squished stomach and intestines.
