tmi, sorry but had to ask

emriley84 · July 2012

Hi ladies. I'm sorry about the not so nice topic, but is anyone else experiencing diarrhea? I was at the park with my family earlier and after my 3rd trip to the bathroom I had to leave! My stomach has been upset for a few days. I've read this can by an early pregnancy symptom. I wasn't blessed with this my 1st pregnancy lol.

Anyone with me? Tell me I'm not alone!

You are not alone, I was consitpated with my first pregnancy now the opposite issue! Lovely

Yep, I had it really bad for a few weeks straight. It's common and, personally, I can't decide if its better or worse than the constipation I have since started experiencing!

Make sure you drink lots of fluids so you don't dehydrated and it will eventually pass.

I had it the first week of my pregnancy. It hasn't been back since and I hope it stays that way. PP is right...drink lots of fluid, even if it seems counterproductive.

I actually think your lucky right now....

I think all of us painfully constipated mommas are a little jealous LOL

I had the opposite problem with DS... hopefully it goes away before m/s sets in. I'll be in the bathroom all day!

Weeks of constipation followed by horrible (the worst I've ever had) diarrhea was on the list of symptoms I had with DS. It was so so so bad. I seriously almost crapped my pants on a drive one time with DH. I was literally screaming "I'M GOING TO SHIZZ MY PANTS!" and he was passing cars on double yellow lines to get me home. lol That was the closest I've ever come to going on the side of the road in 5 o'clock traffic!

I have been alternating back and forth - what lucky ladies we are!

You are not alone..

You are not alone! I have been experiencing this for the past week. I would rather this than constipation though!

You are not alone, this past weekend i felt completely and totally miserable. Thats how i knew i was preggers bc i couldn't stay outta the br....in walmart and Lowe's literally running across the store to go. Sat took a test and guess what I'm preggers! Then Saturday was worse!!! I couldn't make it in time!! Talk about TMI and feeling like i was dying! Luckily that subsided and I haven't been to the BR since Sunday night. I have always been one to not go regularly and was fortunate my 1st pregnancy. I'm hoping it was just a bug! Hang in there....it happens to us all

Luckily, I haven't had any poop issue with DS or this one (so far) but I have to say... I'd rather have the runs than be constipated! Make sure to use wipes instead of regular toilet paper so your butthole doesn't feel like it's on fire.

Hope you feel better soon!

Totally normal. Pre pregnancy I was always super regular and immediately w this pregnancy I got constipated. Starting last week, I only have one BM a day and it is diarrhea. Now that m/s has shown its ugly face, I wake up to morning poop and puke sessions. Its lovely lol.
