Diarrhea instead of constipation

Has anyone been experiencing this? I'm about 67 weeks and I've had horrible gas and sorry TMI but very smelly. But I get diarrhea. Anyone else?

    I know its a typo because you are most likely on mobile, which eats punctuation, but my first thought when I read your OP was, "Holy hell 67 weeks?!". 

    Horrendous gas (like stanky!) and diarrhea is normal. Not everyone gets constipated. Also, you make go back and forth later between constipation and the poops. Its all normal.

    Yep diarrhea happens instead of constipation with some. I had the same problem with this and my last pregnancy. I read it's increased progesterone. I've had naturally higher than normal progesterone before pregnancy so I think that might be contributing. Who knows?

    I have had diarrhea as well. I'm 8 weeks now but I've had it since about 4 weeks. I've been eating bread drinking poweraide for about a week now and it has somewhat gone away. I get that yucky feeling in my tummy now and then but my doctor said that its not uncommon for women to experience it. If you feel like yours may be worse then you may want to talk to your OB and get a direct answer. Good luck and feel better! Congrats Hun!

    I had mostly diarrhea for the first two months: 80/20 diarrhea/constipation, but now that ratio is starting to flip!

    I'm very early in my pregnancy, just found out yesterday. I too have had bad diarrhea and hope it doesn't last through the next few weeks. I've been eating healthy so I thought it was weird. Glad to hear it's normal.

    I have definitely been gassy and getting all kinds of fun consistencies in my stool.
