Contractions and diarrhoea.

Mummy MichelleMummy Michelle member
in 3rd Trimester
So over night id been having mild contractions. Come 6am they were stronger and causing me to freeze. I had vomiting and diarrhoea and thought it was my body clearing out. By noon all signs had stopped :( any thoughts on what could happen next? Be hopeful it could start up again or give up hopeful thinking that labour is near.

    How many weeks are you?  Could be a sign that labor is right around the corner but could also just be an upset stomach.  When I have diarrhea, the cramping feels similar to contractions.

    Unless they're getting longer, stronger, and closer together, you're not in labor yet.  Maybe close, though!  Or you could go an other 2+ weeks.  You just never know.  GL!

    I was having vomiting/nausea, loose bowel movements and contractions on Friday and then nothing. I haven't had a contraction all day today, I at least had a hand full yesterday. I was glad though because I am hoping this means that I might be able to go into labor on my own this time, I had to be induced with DD.

    I've been dealing with the stop-start contractions for about 3 weeks now. It's very annoying.

    I am 37 weeks and I just have no room anymore(as all of you) so i just seem to be going to the bathroom a lot more than usual.  I think you are ok; you could call if you feel worried.
